As I journeyed along my life-path encountering many hurdles, some I cleared easily while others were much harder. My days were filled with sunshine and storms but thankfully I was never alone. I met many characters along the way; those who were with me for a lifetime, a while or a fleeting moment, the time frame irrelevant. What was important was the effect they had on me and me on them. One such companion became so adored that losing them left me heartbroken and fearful of continuing my journey without him but my belief that true love never dies gave me hope. Adam wasn't lost to me; only traveling a new path, on the other side of the veil. Our deep feelings for one another made it possible to stay connected, to communicate the best we could until the day we were reunited. He truly was my forever love.
