I realized today how precious life is, when we think of those wonderful moments we spend with our partner.It somehow made us wish that all these happy moments will last forever. But nothing last forever in this world we live in. When i made a vow in front of God to spend the rest of my life with the person i love it means forever. But somehow i realized today that there will come a time i need to accept the fact that one of us will passed away. It might be me or him and thinking about this made me so emotional.
It made me fear of losing him coz i cant anymore imagine a life without my husband. Part of me is him and just thinking about one day i must accept the fact that part of life is death scares me. Makes me wonder if most of you have already accept that part of loving someone is accepting that they will not be around us forever. For me it might takes time or if that time happens i know that my life wouldnt be the same again. Everytime i think about it, it made me cry and i wish that somehow my heart and mind is open to the reality that nothing stays forever. Perhaps not now but in time i hope i am brave enough to face the truth. Hope you can all share your views regarding this matter. Happy mylotting everyone!

The moments we spend with our parents are worth mentioning. I can express my feeling in the line of a famous book "A Tale of Two Cities". "It was best of time. It was the worst of time." It was the time of happiness. It was the time of peace. It was the time of dream. It was the time of Play. It was time of stress less life. It was the life of life. It was full of joy. It was full of affection. It was full of discipline. It was full of punctuality. It was the time of carry orders. It was the time of sorrow for the tight routine of parents. I miss the time. I miss the friends. I miss the neighbors. I am the product of the time.

Yes we all think that but there is nothing we can do about keeping the one we love close forever. I feel the same way but I know that my partner has an incurable illness and I just hope that he will be with me longer than he thinks he will.
In a way I know that one day I will lose him and my partner tells me that I will have to get used to the idea that one day I will be on my own. He is 12 years older than I am and no one knows how long he will last so for me every day is precious. Knowing will not make it any easier when the time comes but I will have warnings as his condition deteriorates. At the moment he is ok and I dream of having at least 10 years, he says 5 but I can hope.

Hi sharra1! i hope and pray that your husband will recover completely from his illness. I believe that nothing is impossible with God. I admire your braveness, finding out that your partner has an incurable illness is the hardest thing to deal with.Sometimes we refuse to accept what is the doctors finding and hope that they are wrong. If i were in your shoe right now i might not be as brave as you are.Perhaps in time i will eventually be strong enough to face the truth. I wish you all the best and God bless you and your family.

I also do not want to think about losing my husband. Getting married to him made my life seem better and happier than it had been before. I do accept that there will come a time that one of us will pass away. I just do not like to think about it. I know that it will change my life. I know this for the fact that I have alsready lost some significant people in my life and two of them happened before I ever even met my husband.

Hi dhisaw! tnx a lot for sharing your point of view. Thats what i feel too and yes your right that thinking about will make a person emotional. I just cant help it sometimes specially when i am so happy and i am spending my weekend with my husband. I keep on telling him the same thing to stay healthy and never leave my side. But i know that i must be strong and I should'nt think so much of it coz there is nothing i can do to change reality.
