Cassiopea



I'm going out with Mary in the torrential rain and 
I'm  going to listen to this music from Really Slow Motion

  3. Lovely bit of music.
    I was just 23 when my first husband left me after just 3 years of marriage. I had to become very hard and nasty quite quickly - just for a while - to get through.Once it was over I went back to being me.

  4. Chin up and forward, John, we're all rooting for you. Re: someone's remark a couple of posts back, I hope none of your furries are to go with the Prof??!! That should not be possible. I would hope that there is enough empathy around the cottage to ensure that this little pack of dogs and a cat is not broken up. I hope I haven't made you feel worse, but you must fight any attempts to do this. And I sincerely hope that it isn't true. I'll come over and barricade the door if you want.

    I, too, am with you.

    Lovely music. I recommend Gustav Holst's "The Planets" as a soaring balm for your heart.

    Hugs

  9. Uplifting Music . . .
    Bet it makes you and Mary walk at a good clip!

    Back home, finish the paper work, deliver it.

    Pull the window shade down.
    You’ll know when you are ready to open it back up.
    Suggestion from a counselor, years back . . .
    It helped.

    Hard though it is just do it it will hang over your head until you do

  11. Finishing that paperwork is an important step in the process you're in, dear John. And after that you will feel much less distressed. Best wishes from Downunder!

  12. Yes, calming, soothing music is always called for when dealing with the law and lawyers.

  13. As I stare at that picture and listen, I know there is unfathomable beauty at distances beyond our current ability to see in this universe. There will be times ahead in your life more beautiful than you can imagine now, John.

    You will look at the paperwork, you will read it, and you will deal with it...Crushing as that may be, I hope that soon...

    - you can picture yourself reaching through it all - to see yourself dreaming about a future filled with love and happiness - and when you are able to - to start making that dream come true

    -Mary

  23. Beautiful! You are always sharing such lovely things with us - may I share one with you? This is one of the most moving and extraordinary videos I've ever seen, and the music is gorgeous, too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=5&v=HCddlkIlTbI

  26. When I lost my husband and was left alone in a house we had just moved into, with no idea who was who and what was where, every day a kind person came to me and said or did something so sweet and touching. Loss is loss, however it happens ... you are grieving.
    Eat when you can, sleep when you want or when the dogs allow you to and just think of yourself ... and the dogs :) I was told it would get better, I couldn't imagine it .. things got better but there will always be that bruise on your heart .. you will live with it and not notice it after a while.
    love you

    I read this today:

    Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.

    Oddly profound.
