I have to get on with my life!" Since then I've flourished with the understanding that he will always be with me but not haunting me like he did for 17 years. <BR/><BR/>BIG hug, take the time you need to reflect without pressure from anyone and talking about helps so much!Tisha!https://www.blogger.com/profile/00476744443195395621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33517068.post-32377194822094564652007-04-11T17:53:00.000-03:002007-04-11T17:53:00.000-03:00I just try to remember people the best I can.I just try to remember people the best I can.Metal Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18400759786407810475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33517068.post-35372259634452197202007-04-11T13:55:00.000-03:002007-04-11T13:55:00.000-03:00Just feel a little sad when someone dies.

It was ...I lost my father when I was 20 years old. It was traumatic, because he was the best father a girl could dream of. He being a doctor and watching him succomb to 'illness' I was devestated...wanting him to 'fix' what was wrong...after all, he was smart enough. When he passed, I numbed myself. I'd drive home, telling myself that he was outside gardening. Or he was at a meeting.<BR/><BR/>Over time, it got better. I still miss him just as much, but the hurt has gotten a bit easier to deal with.<BR/><BR/>Grief, we all deal with on our own accord...we do things differently, and only you can battle those emotions you feel inside. <BR/><BR/>I will never forget my father, but I know now he is gone. But I do find comfort in knowing that he is not suffering anymore, and that to me, is the biggest thing that matters.Divianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06484640303658366940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33517068.post-16322068622836955942007-04-10T18:18:00.000-03:002007-04-10T18:18:00.000-03:00"What is your experience?

Did it make you a space-alien version of your former self? Did you learn to appreciate the family or loved ones that you had left and make the most of time with them? Or did you obsess over the loss and let it eat you alive inside, and begin to take for granted those people that you were still so lucky to have, thus separating yourself from them?"<BR/><BR/>Well, I would give advice but I don't think i can give any better than you already have and know yourself. You said it to close to home with that excerpt above. <BR/><BR/>I can say that something that always makes me feel better or gets me out of the dark place is when I dress up in a clown suit and go to a non-denominational church...<BR/><BR/>Take it easy jaXXXXXXXXXX as I know you will. Write a song for someone. Hell, write a song for me if you can't think of anything else. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, see ya' on the flip side...<BR/><BR/>later...<BR/><BR/>Blu~DoneCheap DoneRight PChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07810617877827731552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33517068.post-14351058810200762892007-04-10T17:31:00.000-03:002007-04-10T17:31:00.000-03:00I can only offer a quote:"I pray for the strength ...I can only offer a quote:<BR/><BR/>"I pray for the strength to accept that lives most often end in tragedy, that quests don't always work, that understanding is a long and lonely hunt, that I can't reason my way to love, eat gold, or live forever. And that none of this matters. I pray to understand that I am here to find my way back to God, whatever that takes, and all the rest, save love and duty, is an illusion." <BR/> by John Taylor Gatto<BR/>Thanks for dropping by. <BR/>GoatmanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33517068.post-49886852821636502642007-04-10T15:34:00.000-03:002007-04-10T15:34:00.000-03:00We drink and rejoice in the memories of our dearly...We drink and rejoice in the memories of our dearly departed friend.MrRyanOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00607621271037613315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33517068.post-29594982594552494742007-04-10T14:32:00.000-03:002007-04-10T14:32:00.000-03:00i used to bury my head in the sand and couldn't fa...i used to bury my head in the sand and couldn't face death and all that it brought with it, now i am older and wiser and will talk and listen, dont rush the greiving process, i play sad songs and cry.<BR/>loving thoughts are with you xkatyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12771905454120068595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33517068.post-38261803772473442692007-04-10T13:41:00.000-03:002007-04-10T13:41:00.000-03:00We all deal with it in our own way.
