Happy New Year! How are you and your sons doing? How is mom doing?
Tad, it takes time for most of the hurt to fade away. There will always be a little piece of scar tissue in your heart because you were w/her for a very long time...but in time, when your focus is finally on things that truly matter to you and your life has balanced itself out, that teensy weensy bit of hurt will fade away. It takes time and it truly doesn't happen over the course of a few months or even possibly months. Be patient w/yourself. You loved her deeply and just like mourning for a loved one who has crossed over, you will do the same for the loss of your marriage and mate.
Be kind and patient w/yourself. You are healing slowly but surely.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
