I mean, I didn't chose this life (one would REALLY have to be brave for that!). All I really do is put one foot in front of the other and get through each day at a time, there's nothing particularly noble about that, however people feel the need to congratulate me or praise me, I find it so hard to reply to those comments. I can see that I have shown courage and strength that I didn't know I had... but felt I never really had a choice! This was thrust upon me and it was sink or swim. Thank you for reaching out, I really enjoy your writing on Wednesdays xoRebecca Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421193473127149748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1268746983441346507.post-45912890684420031812014-05-17T23:24:07.942-07:002014-05-17T23:24:07.942-07:00I agree, it was very hard to accept I would never ...I agree, it was very hard to accept I would never get those answers and would never FULLY understand what happened to my husband that day. Thankfully, the questions don't consume me they way they used to but I think they will never fully go away.

I hear your pain and confusion and also determination. I find myself saying to people in response to "oh, you're so brave" that well, I haven't died so I guess I have to live". And somehow the days pass until now I'm a little over a year.<br /><br />I'm wishing you moments of ease as you tread this confusing path. May the love you shared become bigger than the grief~<br />alison (Wednesday writer)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00031874239296682781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1268746983441346507.post-86852396472531595572014-05-17T03:56:54.023-07:002014-05-17T03:56:54.023-07:00Rebecca sorry for what happened and your loss.
Th...Rebecca sorry for what happened and your loss. <br />The (What If), and time following there are questions that we will never get answers. I come across things to figure out the meaning it once had. The person to ask is now gone and the answer is unanswered forever..<br /><br />God Bless<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
