What’s next

I’m living alone now. It’s been 4 years since I lost my husband. I feel like I have moved on, and yet not. I’m still married, at least I feel like I am. How does one truly let go and move on? Is it possible? Is it necessary? Can I live in the shadow of a great love?

  It struck me that you said...u still feel married.  i say that too...and its been 6 yrs for me.  I wonder if we will ever be able to let that feeling go.   I was with him 42 yrs....more than i was home with mother n dad...more than half my life.  We met in college as babies and grew up together.  i dont think i will/ can ever let it all go.  Im struggling ~
