First Birthday

Another first and day I’ve been dreading has arrived.
Been very undecided how to handle it - either stick my head in sand and ignore it or spend time at grave and try embrace it, for lack of better phrase.
Decided on latter

"Today marks a profoundly poignant milestone among the many firsts since I lost you – the penultimate of these heartbreaking occasions.

A stark juxtaposition from a year ago, when we were celebrating your birthday, filled with hope and optimism that the treatment in India would be our first step in winning this war.

I miss you in a way that defies expression, a void so profound that it was once unimaginable to me.

Wherever you may be, Happy Birthday sweetheart.

Love you now & forever

Thinking of you today, it’s so unfair isn’t it, I’m sure your beloved is standing beside you today, if possible try and remember the many happy birthdays you had together, I’m sure that’s what your partner would want for you.

Thank you @Flower_garden - do appreciate it :hugs:

@MemoriesOfUs that is a beautiful video. Your wife was born the same year as my man. He didn’t get to see his 50th. Life is cruel. I hope the day is kinder to you than you thought it would be.

Thanks @Ali29
Far too young - both of them :disappointed_relieved: Just don’t expect it at that age - it’s something 25 - 30 years off, until it’s on your doorstep

Tough morning - but glad I went and spent it with her
Life is cruel :broken_heart:

Yes, beautiful inside and out.
So young and also so young at heart -she was such a force of life.
Life has a cruel sense of humour.

Been a tough day :disappointed_relieved::broken_heart:

:disappointed_relieved: Life just doesn’t make sense any more - I’m sure we all think that on this godforsaken journey

You are correct. It doesn’t make sense. I spend my days either working or crying. People say it gets better with time, but my heart is forever broken.
