I really like your thinking...being a widow. It would be easier to accept the changes going on around us.
It also makes me sad that some men are willing to stick it out, like your Oprah story, and then others, like our WAS, just give up. I thought Clark and I valued the same things, like a life long commitment to each other and only to each other. Apparently I was wrong.
Enjoy your mountain top, but remember that you aren't really alone. You've got your friends IRL and you have us
