It's difficult when your whole life is wrapped around only one person & everything that you value is all about them. I know you might not feel like it right now, but later on, it will be good for you to find things that do interest you in your life....like volunteering (know hospitals will have triggers, but they need volunteers), or animal shelter. If you like reading libraries usually have monthly book clubs. My mother got involved in the braille printing that her church did. One thing to be ware of....something my mother did & something another friend I have now who lost her husband quite a few years ago.....was go shopping to ease the pain. The debt that can happen can really cause depression if not careful. I know when I was depressed in my marriage, shopping was something that made my depression feel MOMENTARILY better.

Know that starting over in life is difficult....but you can be so very thankful that you did have a wonderful husband & special memories....something that you will never loose or forget. Take life one day at a time & see what it available for you that day...what you feel a twinge of interest in.

Slowly you will put together a new way of living for yourself....one that is YOU.....& it's OK.
