. com... I wasn't one of those who posted, but all those I saw defended you. I certainly didn't see anything offensive about your post. I didn't think I was being offensive, but I can often be rather dense about bulldozing over people's feelings without ever knowing I'm doing it. I thought this might be one of those times. You can't ever be too careful in written correspondence, things can take on a totally different meaning than what you meant to say - even smileys don't help. I've read that 90% of what we communicate is communicated by tone of voice and body language - when you lose that communication, the written word seems so inadequate! Hugs, CatNipped -- Joy "You can never do a kindness too soon because you never know how soon it will be too late." - Ralph Waldo Emerson "CatNipped" wrote in message news I'd like to apologize to Cheryl for any (unintentional) hurt I may have caused (I've already emailed her privately to apologize and ask her to come back to the group). I noticed that in some of the responses to Cheryl's note some others in the group seemed to be agreeing with her about me (unless I'm being too paranoid). If I have given offense to anyone else, I'd like to apologize for that also. I think the is the nicest, kindest, most sensitive and thoughtful group of people on earth and I would do anything to keep from causing dissension here or hurting anyone's feelings. If this is the case, please let me know either by posting to the group or emailing me privately, and I will unsubscribe myself from the group - no hard feelings. Hugs, CatNipped |

But that isn't you. Its just the nature of human communication. So please don't anyone leave. I'd miss you too much. Jo |

Yes, you do grieve when you've lost someone, but after a period of time you have to get on with your life. Most funeral homes have support groups to help you through the grieving process. Grief takes as long as it takes, and it's different for each person. Everyone has different past experiences, as well as different innate temperaments, which may help or hinder us from healing from a current tragedy. There's no right or wrong way of grieving, nor is there a standard time for "moving on." I'm terribly sorry about your having lost your husband. And I'm glad that you've found a way to go on. I hope that can help you show compassion for others who've lost people they love, rather than insisting that they recover in the same way, and at the same rate of time, that you have. Joyce |
