25. While we may not be able to feel each other's kind of pain exactly

We can hold hands and be friends through it.

My heart hurts at your pain. I'm coming to a different understanding of being alone, myself. My beloved of 17 years suddenly passed the 28th of February, three months ago today. It's so strange to be alone after all these years and I realize how very, very fortunate I have been to have had A One, a "once in a lifetime" love. I can only imagine the "lost" feeling you're going through, being rather "lost" myself. My challenge now is still nothing compared to yours. But I can still be a friend.
