The Dating pool

I was asked, again, if I ever considered dating and getting remarried. My answer hasn’t changed. I had a good marriage and I really never considered doing it again. But at the same time I miss companionship every day. Jim’s friendship. And even after 14 years without him the aloneness seems stronger every day instead of less. Maybe it is because now my kids are grown. Maybe because I am homeless. Maybe it is because I feel defeated.  While all those things are true, it also true that it is because He was my person.

Jim, I miss your warm light – you were my happy place – it’s a blessing to have been your person and I am so humbled that you were mine.
