Looking for the light…
It’s been a long road since I lost my husband just over six years ago to a sudden and totally unexpected illness.
My journey through grief has been slow and steady and I have been making good progress in creating a new life while honouring the past I had with him.
What I didn’t expect was to be totally blindsided by a man I knew from a classic car club I had joined recently.
He started out as a friend – kind, encouraging, cheering me on as I learned to make my way without my husband.
Then a twist – he took advantage of my lonely grieving heart and suggested he become my lover. Nice idea, but he was married even though his marriage was almost dead.
That was three years ago and the pain is just a fresh now, as this man is still a part of my social group.
The road has been rocky – worse than the grief I went through when my husband died. This saga is seemingly never-ending.
Come along with me as I sort through the emotional wreckage, lies, deceit, and confusion as I once again start over.
