The Dreams and Aspirations
The discovery of her letters and photographs did not just reveal what happened in the past but, on the other hand, disclosed dreams and ambitions she had regarding the future. She wrote about where she would go, what career she wanted, and what family she would like to have. These were not concerning the life she envisioned with him, but rather the one she probably carried with her even before he came along.
He began to invent what things would have been like if she had lived to see those dreams fulfilled. Would they have gone all the places she had written about? Would she have pursued career ambitions and reached the set goals for herself? These questions filled him with hope and grief, realizing just how much the woman he married had in store for the world.
He realized also that these dreams were not there for his wife alone but also for him in the dream they had both envisioned. His wife wanted to share this dream of his life, to build which would take them ahead and allow the growth and completion of their goals. The husband felt so sad, knowing that their future would never come to be, but he was challenged to live a part of some of the dreams she had written about in her honor.
