The Power of Her Words
Reading her words, he could feel waves of both painful and comforting emotions. It seemed like she was speaking to him from beyond, and the love and support she was offering even when not being there with him were so grand that he could never let them go unheeded. Her words weighed something impossible to be ignored, a call to action he knew he must answer.
This was not a goodbye, but a vision about how to move on. She was expecting his struggle and wrote with a wisdom that only a person who knew him more than any other person could possess. Every word felt like an embrace reminding him of the love that would never be erased.
It was how he felt, reading and re-reading the note, in a deeper peace than he’d been able to reach since she had left. It was a turning point in his grief, from loss to love, and despair to hope.
