Friday, September 16, 2011. Reflection on the Water. Of course the changing of the seasons is causing me to reflect on what happened to Chris. Trepidation of reflection and contemplation is the aftermath of my experience of Chris’ encounter with cancer. Just thinking about it instills nirvana throughout my mind and soul. Life was happy. Life was sad. And life is happy once again, and rich with reflection. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A Young Widow's Journey on the Road to Peace.

Wednesday, March 16, 2011. It’s 4:00 AM. I’m used to being kept awake in the wee hours, needled by thoughts of how Chris’ death changed my life. The storm has passed, and my thoughts about the reality of death, and the chaos that followed, blow around in my mind like the last few leaves at the end of a crisp, windy autumn afternoon. Where did those six years go? Where did the 32-year-old, naïve woman who met Chris go? How did I suddenly look up and see a 43-year-old woman in her place?

Thursday, March 22, 2012. Jonathan has been away on business this week. Every time he goes away it feels like he died because I’m used to my husband either being with me, or being dead. There has really been no in-between for me for a few years. But my sweet Jonathan is not dead. He’s very much alive and he’s here to stay, thankfully…hopefully. I already know what I believe, and the warmth still permeates my soul. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Young Widow's Journey on the Road to Peace.

Full Shneed Ahead: 'Unstucking' Myself
http://creejnshneed.blogspot.com/2011/07/unstucking-myself.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. For the past couple of weeks, even though I haven’t been 100% aware that I have been feeling differently, I have been vaguely aware of another change in the winds. The most accurate way for me to describe this latest forward movement is for me to say that things around me ‘look’ different. My perception has changed. Because the two parts of my mind have been in conflict, I have been feeling paralyzed with respect to almost everything. The time has now come for me to accept my lif...

Full Shneed Ahead: My Best Enemy and My Worst Friend
http://creejnshneed.blogspot.com/2011/02/my-best-enemy-and-my-worst-friend.html
Thursday, February 24, 2011. My Best Enemy and My Worst Friend. Maybe it’s because I’m about to be remarried (more on that when I'm feeling better), or maybe it’s all the extra time on my hands now that I have joined (temporarily, I hope) the ranks of the unemployed, but I have been experiencing my emotions with reckless abandon, these past few days. Time is both my best enemy and my worst friend. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A Young Widow's Journey on the Road to Peace.

The ongoing adventures of the undisciplined writer. Or the attempts of a joyfully married, gainfully employed, often optimistic, but generally lazy girl to get published. Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Back to school edition: Lessons learned. The UW has been WILDLY UNDISCIPLINED. Remarkably, breathtakingly so. Downright delinquent, my friends. And for that she is sorry. Her best excuse she can offer you is: life. One final note: this fall the UW is actually doing something. People, its a big deal! About it...

Friday, October 1, 2010. My perception has always painted my grief a monstrous, ominous, seemingly insurmountable sharp-edged mountain, surrounded in black clouds, towering in front of me, growing ever larger and ever darker, each time I have attempted to climb up and over. But that perception has never stopped me from trying, again and again, succeeding a little bit more with each try. Tonight, I shared my new epiphany with Jonathan, explaining how the black piece of rock cracked, broke from the mountai...

Tuesday, November 23, 2010. Happy 40th Birthday, Creej. Today would have been Chris’ 40th birthday. His 34th was the last one I got to celebrate with him, although I suppose I have celebrated each of his birthday’s since in my own way. Deciding that his birthday is a happy day is a matter of flipping the switch in my head. I could easily collapse and cry all day about his absence from my life, or I can celebrate his birth, which provided him with life, and enabled us to meet. Happy birthday, sweet Creej.
