A "NORMAL' DAY?

Violet Apted

Today I am lost! Yes Lost in a crowd! Have you ever wondered how that could be? I used to, but now understand, that even though the world carries on around you? people carrying on in the hub bub of their own lives,? inside you are screaming. Screaming so loud, with a heart that is breaking, (is it still beating?) within your chest. ? Yet no one hears, no one seems to know your whole world has ended.?  There is almost a resentment within me, but I know it is wrong. How can anyone possibly understand how I am feeling ? How I felt when I found my husband lying dead in his beloved garden?? 

? Just a normal day??  That's how it began, I chatted to my daughter, as I made our mid-morning cup of tea and snack. Just a normal day when I went into the garden to?  call my husband. Then the 'normal' day crashed around me and?  I got a glimpse of hell! The rest of the day is a blur, a quirk of nature that helps one get through the enforced?  happenings going on around you. Forty six years came to an end in seconds!

Now I try to weave my way through a mist of normalcy? Did I say normal? Well to everyone else it is and I go through the motions. After the funeral, I travelled to UK to be with my sisters,hoping it would help. It didn't! I am now in Canada for my first white Christmas in thirty years. Will it help? I hope so, but our wedding anniversary is Boxing day???? The forty-seventh that never was? Please God give me strength as I take one day at a time toward, what? I will find out I know, but it will be hard and so very different. ? One thing for sure, IT WILL NEVER BE NORMAL AGAIN!.
