Last year, 2022 brought incredible change in my life. After taking care of my Husband for four years, he passed away on 17 October. On 15 October we had celebrated 38 years together. All of a sudden, I felt like I had lost an arm, my heart, the love of my life.I held myself together; I had to! I had to be strong in order to take care of the details of his passing.
It's almost the first year anniversary: I feel more confidante, more in control of my life and destiny. I give myself credit for all that I have done and give myself a break if I suddenly burst into tears, go fetal wrapped in my blanket. I remind myself that this will pass things are getting better everyday. I am opening myself up to new experiences, meeting new people and trying out things that might have never attempted. All I have is right now. And that's okay.
