But maybe you have a new friend at least. One who understands. Sounds like she had good reason for skipping the book club for a few months.

Being around people who can jump on your grief and make it feel far, far worse can be fatal, to this over-sensitive anyway. I am very careful with myself in such times. What I am missing more than anything is the enormous history with the 3 dear ones I lost in the past 8 months. I feel so lost as a result. They were supportive and loving and just good people. <br /><br />Broken hearts break wide open again from time to time. Without warning.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your moment with me.<br /><br />Sending you a huge virtual hug.<br /><br />XO<br />WWWWisewebwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15281689872840844191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-51361910521074124882015-09-23T12:51:36.396-02:302015-09-23T12:51:36.396-02:30Thank you Ursula, no time does not heal, it scabs ...Thank you Ursula, no time does not heal, it scabs over at times, or creates painful scar tissue.
