An acquaintance of
mine became a widow last week. Her husband died on a Friday. The next day she
was at work. I was amazed. I did approach her and offer my condolences.
Eventually, I told her that I was awe-struck that she could handle going on
with life as well as she did. Myself—pretty much a basket case for almost two years.
She said, “I lost
three children and my first husband. I guess I am use to death…even if that is
possible.”
I don’t know if you can be use to death. I do know
that no two people ever handle loss in the same way. Your moccasins will not fit me well enough to
walk a mile in them.
