Thinking of Errol today on what would have been his
75th Birthday
I think of you every day, these days more with a smile than with tears. Time leaves the memories and heals the pain. We were both a mixture of easy to live with and difficult too. We had strong needs to be alone. We were not dependent types. Two alone souls in the big city, ending up on the same street, across the road from each other. Friends for many years, you were the best of friends, then finding enduring love. No longer young when we married, we still had 30 years together.
I'm so very thankful for those years, for each day...
Beautiful Inger ... I love your words:

ReplyDeleteand your life with Errol is one of them. how Wonderful that you found each other.
sending you love and a great thank you for your generous heart in sharing with us! XO
I love your description of your lives. i, too, am one who has a desire for lots of alone space. I have so many interests different from my husband, so I need that space to do what I love to do...think, write, draw, contemplate, etc. You are forunate you had those thirty years together, i'm happy for you that you did. it's kind of scary when you are both on the planet but getting older - i've often wondered who between the two of us, will leave first and who will be left to deal with it all, grief, etc.
ReplyDeleteMay your lovely expressions of your time together bring peace and joy!
