Writing a New Chapter of My Life
Estimated reading time: 1 minute, 4 secondsFrom the day I met Jan, I was sure that the story of my remaining years would be the one she and I wrote together.
On the rare occasions when I contemplated how our communal life would end, I presumed that Jan would survive me.
Now that I am the one who is still alive, I have to write the final chapter of my life on my own.
The anonymous quote makes it all seem so easy.
Don’t be afraid to start over; you might like your new story.
I know the new story may be one I like. When I met Jan, I was sure that finding someone to love and be loved by was impossible for me.
The final chapter of my life I am writing is one in which Jan is still with me and always will be.
Our love will never die.
