Widow life at 5am during Valentineâs week hits different. Last week I had an injured child. Seven doctor appointments. Five more this week.
Running a household alone.
Building a business alone.
Grieving alone.
And missing my husband more when life gets hard.
Not just on Valentineâs Day.
On the tired days.
On the overwhelming days.
On the âI wish he was hereâ days.
Thatâs widowhood.
Some weeks you hold it together.
Some weeks you fall apart.
Some weeks you rise again.
All of it counts.
If youâre a grieving widow trying to survive this week,
youâre not weak. Youâre doing something incredibly hard.
đ«¶ If this sounds like your life right now,
leave a heart, âme too,â or tell me how youâre really doing.
You donât have to carry this alone. đ
