Today is my second birthday since my soul mate died [View all]

Last year, I turned 60 one month and three weeks after his sudden death; now it's my birthday again. I'm sure that everyone in this group understands completely when I say there is only one thing I want for my birthday, and it's the one thing that I can't have.
