In relationships, it’s natural to join with others, but it’s also fundamentally important to have a strong sense of your own autonomy.

“Our strength grows out of our weaknesses.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you don’t know where to start, start anywhere. I keep telling myself that every time I am stuck. Well, I’ve been a widow for year and a half, and I am twenty-four years old. Maybe that’s the way to start here. My husband had cancer. We tried to enjoy the time before his passing as best we could, so he would die with memories, not dreams. And I guess that the fact that he died content is quite an accomplishment in our relationship. But it doesn’t change anything in my sorrow.

When things aren’t going quite the way you’d like them to, it’s often the result of not asking yourself the right questions. Some questions are hard to confront because you’re afraid you won’t get the answer you want, others because you really don’t want to know the answer. But the best things in life don’t come easily, and turning away from life’s toughest questions is a sure path to mediocrity. I believe that Socrates said it best:
