Betrayal and Grief

Two years or so after my husband’s death I got involved in a very unhealthy relationship. Everyone around me could see this but me. My grief and loneliness had clouded my judgment. I was numb and yet desperately wanting to feel whole again.
After a few months the relationship ended badly, with me feeling very betrayed and stupid.
Because I had not really acknowledged the betrayal I felt when my husband died, I had a difficult time shaking off this betrayal. My husband really did not betray me. He died. But the feelings got all twisted because I chose not to be honest about these feelings at the time of my husband’s death.
DO YOU FEEL BETRAYED? ARE YOU ANGRY? ARE YOU ANGRY AT A LOVED ONE? AT LIFE? AT GOD?
Be honest with yourself. The truth is the healing miracle.
