I would like to thank Sherry for starting this post. Yes, it was controversial, but hey, we can take it. Controversary abounds here at her2support often times....and it's all good! Even when we don't agree...feelings are shared....hashed out......and on we go!

This post moved me more so because some of my friends here at her2support, are among those who have found love and moved on. Also, there are others in my life here, who have done the same. One of the things a friend, just recently expressed to my husband and I is "I think I found love again but I am so afraid of what others may think." This person is a wonderful man who lost his wife at age 48. He loved her. She loved him. Sadly, she is gone....He isn't. The last thing he needs, (or anyone else in that same situation) is others deciding for him when the right time is.

Thanks Sherry for sharing your heart and being honest. You were heard and understood by many. Many have the same fears about this as you do and thankfully you can share those feelings with one another. That is a good thing.

Love and peace among us all...

Mary Jo
