The other day when I was sitting at the drive through at my local Micky D’s, I started crying. I was madly in love with my wife and miss her so very much. And by the time I got to the food window, I was a complete mess. Not wishing to get involved in any discussion with the staff at Micky D’s, I grabbed my food and drove off.
Now, whenever I have these out breaks, I have to ask myself if I am grieving or just having a “pity party”. If I am grieving, then that is normal but if I am just having a pity party, then it needs to stop.
I can’t go through life feeling sorry for myself. So, I remind myself that she is dead and that there is nothing that I can do to change that fact. Get over it and get on with living.
So, the question remains: Grieving or pity party?
Hi Ned, I still have outbursts of tears. The littlest thing can remind me of Ted. In the grocery store I will see something that Ted liked. As time goes on, these outbursts get further apart. It’s been 51/2 years and I still love him and miss him so much and don’t understand why this happened. I guess it is normal. I miss Kathy, too. For some reason, God called them both home and we just have to go on.
