This story ends with faith soaring, nestled between battling love and pain that began in August of 2014. Rapidly, those reflective moments after the sudden death of my husband turned from ugly to hopeful to surrender.A story mixing love and conflict, hope and faith, nourished by nature and family saddled in between the business of grief. Not just of my own personal moments and setbacks, but those guided and handed by others.The death of my husband narrowed the lens throughout all four seasons, in which the winter months would bring nostalgia in a cup, one sip at a time.Our foundation, our playground, even the anonymity of work where we met would become a blessing and a tease.A splash of Creole, spiced with Cajun foods and languages, this story centers on letting old and new experiences glide into place.Doors have been opened and closed as told in the poem.It is for certain that death did not magically glue itself upon me alone. Many before have and after have fallen into the traps of depression, bitterness, guilt, and private talk sessions, trying to make sense of it all. But as I’ve learned and those before me, it is those that speak up, share, and seek out help in any manner that is comfortable to their own needs.What makes this personal first-account history of a life before, during, and after a husband’s death any different? The seasons highlight the readers’ senses, ideals, and awareness as the calendar flips. There is no overloading the reader with a step-by-step account of how to take care of themselves, for our hearts already know.I simply fine-tune the senses.
