grief

Someone once told me that grief was like the ocean, in that it comes in waves.

So true! I have days/weeks that are sometimes overwhelmed w/ memories, triggered by things like catching his smiling face in a picture out of the corner of my eye or that grin my son gives me when he's up to something ornery (just the way his Father did). Then, I will have days/weeks that keep me busy and my mind on the task at hand and not what's missing in my life.

I know it's also been said that "time heals", and it does. But, there is a scar on my heart that I will have for the remainder of my time on this Earth...the loss of my Jeremy. I get through each day thanking GOD for the time I had w/ that wonderful man(even the times I wanted to throttle him-LOL-there were plenty of those!).
