Can you promise me that if my time is cut short, you’ll continue to live on for the both of us?
You love this person. You want him
or her to be happy regardless of
whether he or she is with you or
without you. If death collects you
ahead of schedule, you’ll want to
know during those last few seconds
that the person you love will
continue to live life to the fullest.
That your partner will continue to do
great things, continue to be happy,
and — if you have children —
continue to love your children and
guide them through life.
The death of a loved one can ruin
you. It can break you in ways that
make full-recovery impossible. Can
your partner promise you to find the
strength and courage to press
forward?
I don’t know about you, but the last
thing I’d want for the woman I love
is for my departure to be her
downfall. If my being in her life or
leaving her life will in anyway destroy
hers, then I clearly made a mistake
by allowing myself into her life.
