There is a spot close to you heart that is connected to your emotions. Mine is in the middle of me. It is filed with hope, love, dreams, happiness, and joys. But it is also filed with pain, disappointment and grief.
For the past four years my middle has been filed with love that has been given by a good friend. This friend turned into a source of comfort, every day a message, every day a new dream.
There is an unspoken grief that comes with the passing of someone so close, one that never really goes away.
It turns all those hops to what ifs or what could have been but can never be ever again.
The pain that explodes in my middle is sharp and hard to heal. That hollow in my heart where that good friend use to feel is now empty and lost.
I'm left with letters that turn fond feelings in to grief. Left everyday hoping for a message that tells me of kindness, but instead the hope is replaced with disappointment. Left to my thoughts of memory's that have turned into pain.
perhaps one day that hollow will slowly feel again, perhaps one day it wont be grief anymore, but for now I am grief.

I understand the disappointment and I've had a bunch of grief over the years. All of that is healed through the infinite atonement of our Lord Jesus Christ. If you pain is to the point where Jesus steps in and you feel his tender mercies healing you, then you will turn that place over to a new source of hope and happiness. I do know what I'm talking about with this one. After Pamela died, my grief was so overwhelming I actually was paralyzed. My heart started beating so weird I passed out. I woke up with 3 dogs licking me and freaking out. I went to the hospital, and my cardiologist said, sometimes the heart just hurts and it's like a heart attack, but it's just emotional pain. 2 months after that I met my Kathy.. I have never been happier or better loved in my life. So that was a real example of the Atonement in my life. Thank you Jesus !.
ReplyDeleteChuck I miss her too it was a hard thing. I went through a hard thing to but not as hard as yours I think... you would most likely think mine was a bit silly. I never even met the person I still greave over. but he was dear to me and was there for me when I felt at the time that no one else was.
