I'm sure we all imagined meeting the love of your life in our 20s and building a life together filled with memorable moments over the course of decades together.  For Jennifer Nix, that dream would be deferred when she became a widow after just a few years being married to her college sweetheart.

There is nothing that irritates me more,  than when someone makes assumptions about who I am and my motives behind my relationship status. so, instead of getting caught up in my feelings and allowing my flesh to prevail, i had to step back, take a deep breath and think....
