Common Bonds I remember when me and Margaret were so close not even a crow bar could pry us apart. Not wishing to depart, we shared this common bond, both the leftovers of former spouses who apparently had their reasons to move on. Her husband finding a younger woman working right before his lusting eyes in his very own Doctors office and my wife finding or perhaps being found by a desiring customer filling a warm seat within her coffee shop. I can only speak for myself but we probably had it coming, as lovers seldom leave without reason. Devastated by the prospects of a divorce, the stress tried its best to suffer me no less, and in its cause had no problem succeeding. She was further down the road but seemingly suffering none the less, giving strength by her presence, providing the joy of not suffering alone, two wounded hearts sharing common bonds and comforting each other. JamesLee 13April 2008 Margaret is passed away now, but at that time she was my angel. |

Nice to know that you had a lovely Margaret in your life who helped you through a difficult time, dear James! Yes, together, the healing process is surely shortened. Love, Margherita |
