What a lovely, touching story. I wish I could see my sons again, but they never appear no matter how much I pray for their touch. Maybe my faith is not as strong as your character in the story. Lovely writing.

    I believe they are there, April because they loved you and would never leave your side. Sometimes, I think we search too hard (I know I do) and we are blinded to their existence. Yesterday I was in a bad spot, but suddenly this story popped into my head....Was it from Mike as a simple rminder or maybe God just sent a message? I'll take it as something good...

This is lovely. People can mock romance stories and novels and movies all they want, but I have to tell you, there is something so simply satisfying about them. And whatever in the world is wrong about that?! Thank you for this warm and enjoyable piece, full of hope and delight.

    Thanks, Rachelle.... I was in a "dark spot" yesterday morning, missing my husband after my birthday celebration I suppose) and suddenly this story was in my thoughts. I sat down and wrote it and felt so much better afterwards. I would like to think he was standing by my side watching me type and sending me warm fuzzy vibes.

What a love story you and Michael have! And I'm glad that God gives you dreams that bring you two together and remind you that he is always near you along with the Lord's presence. I know a number of widows on this site can relate to your words. Thanks for sharing!

    Yes, you and Michael had a rare kind of love. I know so many women who never married and never had that kind of love experience.

This is very well written and I enjoyed listening to a very much. It flows very well when it is read aloud your sentence structure, and your paragraph along with your punctuation makes it for a good read. Patricia.

    You know Carol, It is amazing how the Holy Spirit works in our life to help us when we are feeling low. This is a very beautiful story. I love you dear friend, but Jesus loves you so much more!!!

Awwww, Carol, you made me cry... What a tender and sweet story. Oh my gosh!!! What an amazing way of making a person feel their loved one is still with them, and being able to resolve feelings of being mad at God for the loss. You turned it to thanks!!

Lovely job and worth of several 6's.

Hugs,
Rhonda

    thanbks, Rhonda. I was in a bad spot this morning and suddenly this story popped into my head. It might sound dumb to some, but I felt like Mike was here, telling me to get out of the mood and everything would be okay. I wrote my chapter, and the story, your summary, and reviewed until I can't see anymore... I guess that was his way of telling me to get my butt into gear. LOL I believe that God shows me the way and Mike stands watch when I'm sad.
    Thanks for the wonderful review and for enjoying my story.

    smiles, Carol

The one thing that amazes me, that marriage between a man and a woman, is everything that reflects the reconciling of the world to Himself through Jesus His Son, Christ in God, and us in them the marriage of two people is the marriage of Christ and the church, His bride, beautifully written Carol,, great story, blessings Roy

    i was in a rough spot this morning and I really wasn't sure why, but for some reason are started thinking about Mike and this story formed in my mind. It was something that said it needed to be written. Maybe I just needed a reminder that I am blessed and that he is always with me. Thank you for reading and enjoying the story. I know it put me in a better place.

Mom swears she can feel Dad sitting in his favorite chair. He died about 9 years ago. When she's outside with her dogs, feeling lonely she sees an eagle flying low. She knows it's Dad saying, "I'm watching over you." I believe her. Dad would never completely leave her. I have feeling it's the same for you.

" A single tear, a testament to her pain, rolled off the rim of her eye and meandered slowly down her cheek. (great description & move 'A' closer to the quotation mark.)

Her voice quivered with longing as she called his name. "Michael, I need you." (name,)

    I know some people think I am crazy, but I swear at times I know he is here. Whatever it is, I feel blessed to feel that emotional contact with him.

    thanks so much for reading my story. I appreciate it so much.

    The quotes went with the words prior to the sentence starting with A. And guess what, I had the , right and grammerly instructed me to change it. Why do I pay them? LOL

This is a beautiful, heartwarming love story of faith, hope and reassurance. I remember many of the stories about Carol and Mike because they describe undying and never ending love. I truly believe it is possible to feel the love and warmth of a person even though your eyes may not see them physically. I enjoyed this story.

    Blessing to you my dear friend. I was in a tough spot this morning, but luckily I found my way out by writing the story. I always feel that he is here with me. I would be lost without that thought.
    Smiles and hugs, Carol

Very well written and it presents some very interesting questions. Is it better to hold on to love that has been lost, or is it better to release that, and move on. Is that lost love haunting her and keeping her frozen, or really protecting her?

    In this particular case, I don't want to find anything more. I wrote this story this morning when I was struggling with a whirlwind of thoughts...the story calmed me and brought me peace. It's not a choice for everyone, but it's the right one for me. I will be content with my memories until we meet again. Thanks for stopping by and reading my story.

    Apologies. I thought this was fictional story. My bad.
reply by the author on 07-Sep-2024
    Not a problem. I didn't label it as anything other than a romance. I wouldn't expect you to read my mind....I was just in one of those moments. thank you again for reading my story, lance.
