PS I Love You

Chick Flicks……makes you really think…..

I watched “PS I Love You” this weekend. The movie is about a man passing away and leaving his wife messages to encourage her to move on with life.

I was talking to one of my divorced friend’s about her split up with her ex not to long ago. We were talking about the emotional rollercoaster you go through. You think you love someone so much and know their heart so well. It is a slap to the face and a dagger to the heart when you break up.

It is kind of like they died . You go through a mourning process. The pain and emptiness is so intense, like a part of you dies.

The good news, there is life, love, and laughter again. I’d say about a year after is about normal to be healed. At least for me, everyone is different. Some are stronger the others.

I will say this going to church and having Christian friends have made me strong and help immensely. I have found my faith in people again. I still have a wall, but I believe this is a good thing.

The point is I have a lot of people in my life struggling right now as far as loss and loneliness. I know what that feels like. There is and end to the hurt though. I can promise anyone that. I have met many people in similar situations as mine, even worse ones. Everyone has their story. I think if people just had the faith restored everything would be a lot better for them.

So have faith, love with all of your heart, and never look back. What happens will only make you stronger. What does not happen will only make you wiser. Everyday the sun is shining through your curtains be thankful. God has blessed you with another day.

Have a Blessed day everyone!

Love this blog! After going through my divorce this year and the hell that I have been through, I have found my faith again in God and He is truly blessing me and my children. I believe I will find love again, but not just yet. I am still healing and still learning to trust again. “All things are possible through Jesus Christ”, and I know that I will overcome everything I have been dealt this past year. God wakes me up every morning as he does many of us and lets me share my life with so many people. We all have testimonies and its to help someone else that will go through the same thing you just went through. God never puts more on us than we can handle. I know this was said time and time again to me, but when you are going through something “the storm” is what I called it, you can’t really see much. But thank God I have gone through the storm and now I see rainbows….. You have a blessed week and remember to keep having the faith in God.

Kristen, The blog this morning hits home. I have been widowed for 6 years now and trying to move on. I am thankful I have my co-workers, family and great friends who have helped me through the years. I also have my faith in God and Jesus Christ which has help me through my grief process. I have to disagree with you on the divorce and death matter. When you divorce, you have the chance of seeing that person again within your lifetime, where as with death of spouse, you will not see them again till you meet in heaven, like Eric Clapton is singing about! Not a day goes by, that something or someone brings a memory to mind of my departed spouse. Merry Christmas to you and God’s blessings!
