One lady at work lost her husband of almost 50 years. I heard the news already on Friday. However, today she came back to work. All I could do was to give her a hug and it felt like I didn't help her to feel just slightly better at all.
It made me think about what would it feel like.... losing someone you've spent more than half of your life with. She knew it was coming. We all knew. Yet it striked like a lightning from a clear blue sky. She tries to look like she has accepted the fact but I know she hasn't.
I can't even imagine how I would feel if I should lose you like this. If I should lose you forever. Even though you're not right by my side at the moment, you're still here - on planet earth.
Wow, thinking of something like this while at work and crying at work for a stranger.... that's a new level - even for me!
