Greater Love
It s funny how we come to depend on love, I reckon it must be the greatest force on earth. I miss Jill's love, I say to God everyday that I love Him and I do but I really miss the tangibility of love here on earth. I miss companionship, a hand to hold, a body to touch, lips to kiss, I could go on but you get my drift. Jesus said in John's gospel that "GREATER LOVE has no man than this, a man laying down His life for His friends".
Death has a way of shattering love. I will always love Jill, what we had was unique and even as I try to move on in my life I will love her forever but its different, its over. Jill can no longer love me in return and as I watch people love each other I can't help but feel denied that privilage. As I walk in the park and watch a wife snuggle into her husband I cannot describe the feelings of lonliness.
So as the months move on with someone like me please don't judge us when we look out for love again. There I've said it, just being honest and not ready yet but hope is a wonderful thing in a time like this. Thank God this morning for GREATER LOVE.

Phil,
Your honesty is one of your best attributes and it humbles me BIG time! It also shows you to be the genuine, warm, loving person that you are and although you are not ready yet, the fact that there is hope that you will love again and share that warmth and kindness with someone else, is proof that you are starting to go through this and slowly move on, living your life without Jill.
I don't claim to have known Jill very well but speaking as a wife who loves her husbnad, I think she would have wanted you to hope and eventually love again.
God Bless!

Phil,
Your honesty astounds and humbles me and it shows you to be the genuine, warm and loving person that you are.
The fact that there is hope to love again, even though you are not ready yet, shows you are moving forward and beginning to live your live without Jill. Of course you will always love Jill and moving on doesn't mean you love her any less but you are starting to heal.
I don't claim to have known Jill very well but speaking as a wife who loves her husband, I think she would have wanted you to share your warmth and kindness with someone else.
Take Care,
