Dynamics change.

For most of our marriage there were two main people in our lives, myself and Alicia , - and I usually took the lead. God was there, but almost always as a guest, a sort of onlooker, albeit an onlooker both approving and ready to become involved in whatever way I and Alicia wanted.
Now that Alicia has died, and her spirit is with God, all that has changed, and I must learn to live with the consequences of that change.
Where once I led the way and, in many respects, Alicia was content to follow behind - now it is Alicia who leads and, in the years ahead, I must follow because she is leading me home to God. The God who made us both, not just for each other, but for Himself also.
Now God is Alicia‘s‘ senior partner,’ - and I am very much the junior!

' Remembering Alicia' is up!

It's my first post of 2011, and in my book it proves I'm a genius! Not the worlds fastest genius, ( it did take me nearly a week to work out how to get the photo's into it without them ending up in all the wrong places,) but nonetheless my illustrated piece ' Remembering Alicia,' is now up on her blog at http://alicia-cox.blogspot.com/
It's all about how we first met.
In future anything I write about her will go onto that blog with everything else I want to post about her,and I'll simply put a note of it onto this blog.
This photo of her beside Gortinty Lake in Co. Leitrim in Ireland was taken in 1982 when we were living there.
