This came to my attention via an online site dedicated to thought provoking quotations and the history behind them. The site sends an e-mail every week...my husband found it interesting and turned me and many of his students into subscribers. Yesterday the theme was grief and the C. S. Lewis quotation, which I had read before, struck me anew. I do feel such fear now, about so many things, strangely including some quite trivial. Even writing this down makes my heart pound a bit, very odd.
Another quotation from the same e-mail came from long ago British prime minister Benjamin Disraeli, who wrote that ‘the indulgence of grief is the blunder of a lifetime.’ That somehow resonates with me, though not in the same visceral way that the C. S. Lewis quotation does.

I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
It was not supposed to be like this
In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
