Valentine's wishes

[rifatheroffour]

To all my dear widowed friends,

 

I wish you all a gentle day this Valentine's day.  

I used to love doing something special for my wife each year. I make chocolate for a living and always custom made something for her. Since she died I avoid our retail store on this day.

Wishing you and everyone a calm, peaceful  day  and the strength to get through it.
Eventually the better memories of past Valentine’s will overpower these sadder ones.

Wishing all a Valentine's Day that treats you kindly. 

 

My now Valentine's Day is celebrated by appreciating people who treat me well or make life easier. I stopped by a few places to deliver chocolates today. Seems to brighten their day. Makes me happy too.

Made it through another one single.  Still Widowed.  I had 5 alone after my LH died in Jan. Coupled up for 3 but alone again. It was easier.  Still lonely, but easier. And I can remember all the good ones I had, 27 together.  

I made Sat. plans to take my son to see  Blue Man Group.  Eat out.  It made the weekend more doable, too.  It is so up and down with the emotions, still, but not as long or intense.  

Getting there all the time.

 

I bet making chocolates special for her was quite an exceptional gift, rifatheroffour.

I have remarried. Spent several Valentines days alone before I found her. My LW and I had 24 wedding anniversaries on February 15. Valentines days are still hard as our anniversary was the next day. I am blessed with a wonderful new lady who understands that.
