I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love. It could be complicated of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss. Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.
