I am a total theif!

One Day At A Time - The Behaviour of the Bereaved

The other day I read this post from a fellow widow and it truly stuck with me the past few days.  There is so much reality to this post so I hope you will look at it and maybe it will give you another perspective of this world of the widowed.

  2. I often can't do anything but cry because I don't know what else to do for both for you and Jeremiah. I know (think?) you need reflection time and some space, but I just wanted to remind you that you are on my mind all day every day. I know I do not understand you feel or what you are going through; I shake thinking about it, but I love you and the kids so much and hope to God you know that.

  3. Thanks for sharing that blog...it is a helpful "How to" guide on how not to be a moron when trying to be encouraging. :)

  4. LOL, oh Heather. It's totally meant as an insight and though it doesn't totally apply to me some aspects of it definitely do. What I thought was interesting is that some of it defines things that I think but don't actually say. Especially the part talking about reaching out. It's exhausting to even think about but I am so grateful for those who don't take no for an answer because I can't make a decision and am easily overwhelmed by small tasks or short day trips so I would just say no. In reality, I still need people and hopefully they won't hold it against me that everything is so one sided right now.
