We were genuinely happy
When I see old photos of John and me it looks like we were over-the-top happy. It’s true. Our life together was blissful.
I can honestly say we were as happy as any couple I ever came in touch with. I don’t remember an argument (well, maybe one) but we resolved everything quickly. Life was so good!
I don’t expect to find that kind of happiness again. I know I was lucky to have it one time in my life.
In fact, to be honest, I don’t want another relationship like what I shared with John. I’ll always have those memories as his wife. Somehow, aiming for a similar relationship would reduce what John and I shared. I am content to remember.
