Arlene, I know of the new self-awareness you speak of. I was always part of a couple. Now I must rediscover myself... who I was before I was a husband. I wanted, for a wile to be a couple again. I am incomplete. Being a part of a union would not make me whole, though. I must be viewed as complete by me. I will find who I am, then I will be ready to be with someone else. I must be strong so that special someone and I can lean on each other. This is your time. So aptly put. It is, I think, another phase of this grief we feel... another step we make to come out of the darkness of death... to rediscover life. We, all of us on this page, are suvivors. We live on. Our lives can become more. Our loved ones can live on in us, through us... but only if we live. The sunrises and sunsets will be there. We must open our eyes... so they may see too. God bless you on the journey. - David
