I apologize if this is not as tragic as what other people here have done, it’s new for me to feel this way. <br><br>My wife had a baby quilt made for her when she was born. It’s a beautiful patchwork quilt made out of silk that was passed down to her by her grandmother, who received it from her own grandmother. She has it with her everyday. <br><br>I found this website that people love to buy baby quilts for a lot of money, thinking it will be a keepsake for their children and such, and I had the terrible idea to sell it. It wasn’t even mine to sell, but I didn’t think too hard on that. I sold it, and the day it shipped I felt a dark, empty void open in my soul. <br><br>I didn’t give her the money yet, and she knows I did something wrong but she doesn’t know what yet. She’s still happy and content, which makes me feel worse. I don’t know what to do now. I can’t sleep and every time I close my eyes I see her face. I feel awful.
