When i saw the title here, it made me stop...because at one time i also was "shattered" and this is the song i listened to, by linda ronstadt. "Shattered....like a window pane, broken by the storm....each tiny piece of me lies alone and scattered....far beyond repair, all my shiny dreams just lying there. i'm broken, but i'm laughing....it's the sound of falling glass. i hope that you won't mind if i should cry...in public, while i wait for this to pass. 'cause sweet darlin, i'm shattered...into pieces calm and gray sweep the pieces all away, then no one will ever know how much it mattered. that something deep inside of me shattered......" It helped to cry...to cry until there seemed to be none left to cry. but there are always more, dear one....always more. My Master died. There was no last goodbye, no more "i love You's". He died on the treadmill. i waited for Him at our usual spot, toys laid out in neat rows, my appearance perfect for Him, but I never saw Him again. i still think of Him daily, still wish He was here, but I will not see Him again in this life. When the worst that could happen, does indeed happen.....then there is nothing left to fear. i only listen to His words in my head now, and in my heart....they tell me..."LIVE!......LIVE!" i don't know if my words help you at all, dear one...but there is great beauty and grace in continuing on, in spite of loss, in spite of being 'shattered'. and it makes the song much sweeter. laces
