How deep is your love?

20,000 days with him by her side. Her solid rock, her encourager, her love. Together they raised their offspring and were the joyous grandparents of the bunch of grandchildren they got.  
2,500 days without him by her side. He is still in her heart, her mind and thoughts. She misses him so much, wanting to join him desperately.
Two people united in one true love, two souls became one. Beyond earthly boundaries. To be reunited someday. That is love that makes living without unbearable. An eternal deep love. It exists. Ever after. Even after.
What should one do when witnessing this struggle, this pain? Hold on move on? Hold tight. Hold hands. Rub feet. Be there.
Let go. Let go. Let go.
Oh no! That means that she cannot tell, she cannot teach us anymore. Or still?

Sitting next to her when she mourns at his grave brings him back somehow. The sun winks behind a cloud, the wind tickles to dry the tears. The fresh candle she brings him has been lit. When she talks to him she tells us how deep their love is. Making me realize how much I love her.
