It's been 14 days now since my wifes funeral and the hurt is still deep, I've shed a million tears and will probably shed a million more before I can even start to come to terms with it. My sons and I will be going out this weekend to spread Dianne's ashes in the woods, It's the best monument I can think of and will give us a place to be with her.
The children we had and their children are the treasure she left me after forty years together. The memories, the laughter and tears are all that I have to remember her by and I will cherish those for the remainder of my days. Her star still shines bright in the night sky and I hope that somewhere she is looking down and remembers the good times we had together. If there is one thing I have learned from this it's to love life, it's too precious to waste on the small things and I hope I can go on celebrating every single day that I am on this earth. Value your family above all else because you don't know how long you will have them, they are the stars in your sky and like stars, they don't last forever. Finally I would like to thank all of my friends on this site for their messages, If there is a god up there I hope he blesses each and every one of you.
