Thank you so much, Diane. I feel like I'm hung up on something and maybe Mike or someone else is trying to tell me it, but I can't get past it. Probably sounds like I am going off the deep end, but I hope not. I so appreciate that you enjoyed this story. It means a lot to me.
Smiles and hugs, Carol
Comment from BethShelby
Beautiful story Carol. I know it is the story of you and your love. I know how it hurts to know he want be there in person to hold you but will continue to hold him in your hears. Some people never know real love and even though it hurts, aren't you glad of the memories that will always be with you until you meet again.

You know, Beth, I know it too, but for some reason I feel like someone, whether it's Mike or someone else, is trying to tell me something. sounds weird but that's how I feel. And yes, I am so glad that I have all the memories we shared.
smiles and hugs, Carol

I'm not at all perturbed by your stories, you're a romantic as I am, even my grandchildren and adult children sill live in a bygone time, favourite moments I spent with them, Elaine and I still reminisce now about those times, not that we don't enjoy them now, we do, but Elaine and I are still growing old together, beautifully written, my friend, blessings Roy

Yes, I am a Class A certified romantic... I can't imagine a world without love. things have not always gone well in my life, but somehow, somewhere, I knew love was waiting. And it's the best feeling to share it with someone, especially someone who needs it desperately.
Thanks for the kindness and the review.
Smiles, Carol

Thank you, Ulla. Mike has been on my mind a lot lately and I felt like someone, whether its him or someone else, wants me to know something. So I write what I feel.
Thanks as always,
Carol

Comment from estory
This was another strong piece, in my opinion. I liked how you took us on a journey through grief, the anger and the feelings of being betrayed in faith, of the unfairness of pain to the gradual acceptance of the seasons of life and the eternity of love beyond the world in which we live now. Again the imagery was very strong, classic; the clouds breaking to sweep away the gloom and brighten the mood, the butterfly settling on the flowers like the hand of lost companion; and the outbursts from the widow were chocked full of emotion and really expressed, in real terms, what we feel when we go through times like this. estory

A lot of this story is based o my life and true emotions so I am beyond grateful for your kindness and wonderful thoughts. The butterfly has played an important part in my life and I couldn't ask for a better answer from God.

Comment from Ric Myworld
Oh, never apologize for having a heart. So many could use just a pinch of yours to soften the harshness of their ways. Most writers only offer the outer tidbits of emotion, but you bore deep, touching the parts most missed.
Thank you for sharing.

To be honest, I don't know any other way to write. I truly believe that every character I write about has some piece of me entwined around their existence. I thank you for your kindness as always.

Comment from patcelaw
This is so beautifully written and it hosts the readers attention very well. I was mesmerized as I was listening to it as it flows so well. Having lost my husband almost 29 years ago. It spoke a sweet and tender message to my heart. Have a good day and may God bless you and have a very good weekend. Patricia.

Twenty nine years or yesterday, I believe the sorrow and the loss will always be with you. But if we can focus on the positive and believe that if not physically with us, spiritually they never leave our side.

Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
Don't apologize Carol. If we didn't have feelings to write about there would be no stories written. This was a lovely bittersweet story reminding us that even after death our loved ones will remain with us in our heart and soul. Thanks for sharing.

I honestly believe that their love is what gives us the strength to fight the depression, the loss, the anger...until we can stand alone again.
Smiles, Carol

Now you blew me out of the water, Barbara. I felt like Mike or someone (I haven't the foggiest) was trying to tell me something so I had to write this as I sat at the computer this morning. I emotions were hanging out there. I thank you so much for your kind words.
Smiles and hugs, Carol
