It is a challenge to move forward. It feels like a betrayal; if I move forward with my life I am forgetting about Laurence. Somehow if I stand still I will keep him close. If I get on with my life it feels like I will leave him behind.
In truth, I know I best acknowledge his legacy when I am living a life filled with love and faith.
So I move forward, not forgetting Laurence but taking him with me, remembering his love and celebrating his life. I thank God for blessing me with such extraordinary love.
Yes, dear Christine. You are so right to acknowledge this challenge with willingness to grow. You are finding your own way of carrying Laurence’s love with you wherever you are, whatever you do… He will always be your beloved, and you will always be his beloved. And God still needs you to be his beloved servant as well. Thank you for being a woman of faith, and bless you for allowing your love to guide you forward~
