Dear Anne, 

I know I wasn't the perfect husband.  I remember asking you 'If you had your life again would you  get married.?'  And you said 'NO'  I asked it a 2nd  time a few years later. Same reply.  Yet the last written message you wrote me on my birthdday before you passed was on  my birthday card. ' You are my rock. xxxxxx' I cried over that. And can't bear to read it again.    I don't know where this going. Being a little psychic   I've had coins mysteriously  appear in the  house that symbolise that you are OK. Yet I was doing OK till a while ago the shit is once again hitting the fan. Does this grieving never end Anne?  I don't know who you ever were. So introver Our sex life was magic. Yet you lacked everyday affection. No cuddles or kissing. You didn't like that did you?.  Well I needed it. As a police officer who came home after dealing with stuff you  had no comprehension off. You  just didn't get it. If I phoned to say I'll be late  home after a few beers with my mates I got a bollocking!  So I stopped phoning. And when I did get home you sneered and said ' You reek of drink.'  I just couldn't win. YET MY WHOLE LIFE I'VE LOVED YOU TO BITS. AND STILL DO Heart decorationHeart decorationHeart decoration

  • Hi Geoff, no I'm glad you did, it's good to know that we are not the 0nly ones who didn't have the perfect relationship, but we did love each other so dearly x

    Love is eternal
  • This is such a personal message to your wife but I think many of us could write a similar message. No relationship is perfect and particularly when we are going through such a stressful time as most of us have it can be difficult to bring all our wants and needs together. Paul and I had a beautiful marriage but sometimes there were harsh words and anger and despair and tears as well. I think this is absolutely normal. We all did what we could at the time. I am sure she would say this to you as well.

    Love Mel

    I don't like the term "moving on" because it sounds to me like we are leaving our loved ones and the life we had with them behind. I like the term "moving forward" as it implies that, while life goes on, our loved ones are still with us in our hearts and minds. 

  • Hi Mel 

    I wish I hadn't posted it now. I was  messed up at the time. Emotions all over the place.

    Love and Light

    At the end of all our journeying will be to find ourselves back where we started knowing the place for the first time. TS ELIOT.
