Bachelor To The Rapture

I had an interesting experience after church tonight. A friend asked me if I ever thought about getting married again. Usually my married friends tell my that I need a wife and that I ought to get married. But this friend asked for my thoughts on the matter. I appreciate him seeking me out and asking me for my thoughts on the matter.

To answer the question, the answer is no. I probably will never marry again. I still miss my wife. No woman here will ever take her place. The best years of our marriage were the last few years. No woman will begin a new relationship with me and be like Kathy was at the end. Kathy loved me to the end. We had a lot of history together. We grew up together. No new woman for me will have that kind of history or background. The closest that I could possibly find would be someone who knew Kathy and who knew us as a couple. That woman does not exist in this church. That woman is not in Prescott either. She doesn't exist anywhere.

So it's still a bachelor to the rapture for me.
