40th Wedding Anniversary

 

Would of, Could of, Should of

I have found as my years of wisdom have accumulated, there can be no “what-ifs”.  Today would have been my 40th Wedding Anniversary, if my husband had survived.  As it were, we had 33 years of marriage.  There are many "would of, could of and should of" feelings that arise when you lose someone so suddenly.  We had 9 months to prepare, but that isn’t really long enough to do or say what you really want to do or say.  There is much numbness in the anticipation of an impending death.  Acceptance of the situation brings about peace.  If I go back and consider the “what-ifs” it just introduces scenarios that weren’t meant to be.  God’s plan has a purpose.  We had three beautiful children and thirty-three years as a family.  I reside in that fact.
