My beautiful wife Joanne passed away 14 years ago in July. We were married for over 25 years and had been sweethearts since high school. We have three beautiful children. Joanne's death nearly crushed me. We were best friends, lovers, parents, tennis partners, and had a long history as friends before we ever became romantically involved. I was shattered emotionally and spiritually. I had naively assumed that if we behaved reasonably well and treated others the way we like to be treated, the universe would hold up its end of the bargain and place only the normal life challenges of paying bills, raising children, and working a job in our paths. Like Job, I learned that no such bargain exists. Amidst the beautiful symmetry of life, chaos, injustice, disease and death do enter. Afterwards, I focused too closely on Joanne's physical absence from my life and even with the support of my children and close friends, my despair felt permanent. I was saved by letting go of something I would never feel again (Joanne's physical presence) and realizing that our spirits were still connected and will remain connected for all eternity.
