I'm doing the same as well and I agree, it's hard, it hurts, it leaves a blank space. But I have a feeling that space will be filled with so much more love and happiness than we've ever imagined.

LoveHubbie was taking pictures of me and of the sunset as I walked the Dragon's Teeth Labyrinth on Maui. Suddenly a noisy American family approached, the kids hepped up and squealing and running around loose, the parents not paying any attention.

I was never a fan, but gosh my Mom will watch his movies, over and over again.<br /><br />And I also am finding music very appealing at the moment. For me, it's a lot of latin music and arabic music.

It's so good to acknowledge that any change like that will feel scary or anxiety-provoking at first. Hugs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
