Sunday Scribblings 152 - Lost
Happy Sunday Scribblings!
I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend so far and are enjoying the first day of March. I don’t know about you, but time has just been flying for me! I can’t believe it’s March already. It’s almost getting to autumn here in Oz…
On to the prompt.
“Gotten lost in the woods? Driving? Lost a child in a store? Lost something else of value — found it again? Lost souls, lost innocence . . . write about the word “lost”.”
Talk about an interesting prompt. I read it and quite a few ideas flooded into my mind… I am going to go with one in particular, but you will have to forgive me if I am not exactly clear. I am a bit ill at the moment, so clear thinking isn’t my forte. I hope you will forgive any mistakes in clarity.

The Most Important…
I have nightmares about losing the most important element of my life. It’s a fear I have, and I know I have to deal with it, but it’s hard to avoid the occasional dark thoughts that flitter into my mind when I least expect them.
There are things you can do to prepare for the loss - as much as you can prepare for such things - and to make the time after the loss less harsh, but you can never replace what was lost. That’s the hardest thing. You can deal with it, you can work around it, but how do you get past the loss of something so precious? Something you cannot, no matter how hard you try, get back?
I don’t know what I would do if I ever lost my husband.
