The pain of being a widower.

It's been two solid years since the passing of my beloved wife and life has never been the same for me. The memories still linger and I have come to realize that such a grief never goes away entirely. The loneliness is more than I can handle and it's very difficult to bear especially when you live alone and have no one around you. I feel very empty nowadays and wish that I can overcome all of this and be happy again.

Oh, so sorry.

That's a place we'll all reach sooner or later, all who are lucky to be in a good relationship anyway. Either we'll go or they will.

I think you'll be happier if you try to re-vamp your life. Take up a new interest, join some kind of group, the possibilities are endless. To have more in your life, you have to go after it though. Best wishes.
