theNotoriousP.I.G. a current DUer became a Widow today. I am praying for her
and her family.

This is not the calm uneventful New Year I wished for Everyone.

Please say a prayer for her.

13. Because I cannot pray, I send this poem from Emily D. who knew something about
the sudden death of a loved one:

"By a departing light
We see acuter, quite,
Than by a wick that stays.
There's something in the flight
That clarifies the sight
And decks the rays."

27. It's hard feeling helpless...maybe when she feels like it, she'll read the threads
dedicated to her and her family.

And sometimes, corny as it sounds, I believe people might be able to feel when lots of friends are thinking about them. I hope she is comforted by family and friends that are there in Germany with her.

Thank you, gb, for letting us know that he died.

Losing a spouse over the holidays is especially painful. May she get as much healing light that we can send to her and may her husband rest in peace.

Found this on youtube. Strange to think "Bridge over Troubled Water" was once a new song, it's a song that's always brought me comfort

43. I was at the S&G concert in '69 when they sang a preview of this song
I hope it brings some comfort. Things were supposed to improve in 2010...

it's just devastating. I pray she's able to come to a place of comfort and peace sooner rather than later but these things have their own time. I pray she knows how many hugs there are for her here.

47. It's nine years since
I lost my fiance in a motorcycle accident. We had been together for eight years, and in school with each other for a few before that.
I still think about him every day. It never, ever leaves you.
I will pray/send light and love to her as often as I can. :cry:
