[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 721981, member: 1963"] I still get hit by the "grief monster" occasion, 15 years after my husband's death. Now though, it's usually a good kind of sadness, if that makes sense. A couple of weeks ago, I was listening to Pandora radio on my phone. A specific song by Harry Chapin that husband used to sing all the time came on. I was suddenly in tears. I cry very rarely, and in fact, the last time i cried was when Jakey the cat had to be put down. They were initially sad tears, and then I had a vision of Stu, a few months after he'd gotten out of the Army, with his hair growing out, and the beard he'd grown to hide the scars from a kitchen accident, dancing in the living room as he sang that song in his beautiful voice, and suddenly I was smiling through my tears.
