The Bible says that it is not good for a man to be alone. And yet, now that my wife of 40 years is dead and gone, I find that living alone is not so bad. I do not have to ask permission or beg forgiveness from anyone. I do not have to get another's approval for what I do. I do not have to fear facing someone to answer for where I have been.
I have worked hard to succeed at living alone. I know how to do everything to keep a house in order. I get by with help from my family and friends. Besides, I could not support two people on my retirement income.
I think that maybe 40 year of married life was enough for me. Now I consider myself a bachelor till the rapture!
