Dear Merry
You were a gift from God to your husband!
Now is the time to be a gift to yourself.
There is a difference between loneliness and solitude.
Enjoy your time as special and then have fun beginning to write.
See the good in what you write and don't be personally critical as you regain your abilities and your passion.
The pain and grief you endured have helped you to grow.
Who you are and what you will now write will surprise you.
This life is precious now is your time .
Buddha
