Recently I lost someone whom I loved very much and whose love made me feel blessed. It's difficult to recover from such a loss & I don't think one can fully get accustomed to it either. This is my closest encounter with death & its is one of those things that you never truly understand until you go through it.
I remember when I could run to him & share my accomplishments and see the twinkle in his eyes as listened to my stories. The sheer joy & ecstatic look from him give me the confidence. He was not the type to preach, rather he'd value every decision you make and always supported you in your choices. I miss him....'n think about him every day.
It is one of those mysteries that leaves you helpless & vulnerable. It is a reminder that the people around you, the ones you love & the ones who meant the most to you will also leave you one day. Meanwhile, you can do little things to show them how much they mean to you because nothing lasts forever.

It's sad to think that we honor people more in death than life. This happens alot with artists for example. Starved in their lifetime, their works can fetch millions for OTHERS after they die. More people will come to a funeral than a birthday party.
DEATH helps us appreciate life. It is not an ending, only a new beginning. As they were there for you, you are there for others you may not even be aware of...SMILE.
