So Many Questions
Many times, when we are going through trials and tribulations, we can feel all alone – like we are the only person in the world going through or who has gone through what we are going through. And the questions, so many unanswered questions.
- Will it ever end?
- Will it get worse?
- How can it get much worse than this?
- When will I get my happiness back?
- Will I ever smile and laugh again?
- Will life ever be “normal”, peaceful again?
We all want to know how to get off the ride, how to make it stop, make it end. But it’s not a matter of getting off, this is life. It’s a matter of coping, of dealing until we get through it and come out on the other side. I know firsthand how hard it can be. I have asked all those questions.
Introducing The Author
Like a lot of people, my life has had plenty of ups and downs. I buried my husband, Ernie, of 27 years, among other things.
Ernie was the love of my youth (spring and summer). God sent him to me, and He sent me to him. We thought we would grow old together in the house that was our home, but God took us far apart from each other. I still love Ernie, and I will always love him.
But youth has long gone, and another has come awakening in me a love just as strong, but also different. God led me down a road I never thought I would go after He took Ernie to Himself and away from me.
This love of my fall and winter brings me comfort, peace, and joy. It is easy and relaxing, like sitting in your favorite chair, wrapped in a warm blanket with the warmth from the fire, watching the snow fall. All is well with the world, and all is well with my heart and soul.
