Thirty Days of Mo(u)rning

A widower at forty-two. What Kateri gave me… what cancer took away… and how I'm coping with life from the woods of Vermont

  • Widower Day… 559.

    Posted at 6:13 pm by Darren Lidstrom, on November 2, 2019

    Sometimes… I feel like I’m chasing a sun that has already set. Sometimes… I just wanna stop, sit, and wait for it to come back around… but I’m forced to keep moving through the darkness. (Don’t worry, I’ve got a headlamp… the batteries just might happen to be a bit weak right now!)

      Both chasing and sitting can be good for the soul. It is a wise man that does what he needs. Go into the night with your batteries and take care of yourself.

      We all chase the same sunset at one time or another. Someone once remarked to me that all sunsets look the same. I disagree. Some take your breath away. Those may be the ones we never see again but are so glorious they are never forgotten. Enjoy the memories and try to remember there are more beautiful sunsets ahead.

        Totally agree that they aren’t all the same! They can’t be! Besides, that’s kind of a depressing way to view something beautiful that simply just happens on its own!
