New Description of my Story

A year ago, my grandfather passed away. I was very close to him and I am still coping with his passing.   I remember feeling like I would never laugh again, and when I did feel happy, I would feel guilty because shouldn't I still be mourning my grandfather? But my grandpa loved to make people laugh through jokes or stories, things he would say or do. And he loved to make people happy. Along with family, there is always someone there to cheer you up and make you feel better. I had to reassure myself that it is ok to laugh again. I cannot stay in a perpetual state of mourning because I would not be living. Living a wonderful life is not a betrayal to the love one that was lost. 

My story deals with the loss of a loved one and takes place during WWII. Ruth loses her husband and seems to be stuck in a deep depression. Bill, her neighbor, sees that Ruth is having a very difficult time and decides to cheer her up and let her know that life does go on and life does not stop with the death of a loved one. Bill is a widower, like Ruth, and tries to remind her of the happiness that exists outside of her world of sadness.
