People Die, Life Goes On
What death means to me
Everyone grieves in their own way. We all view death totally different. These are my views, how I feel, my take. I am not cold, heartless or insensitive. This is who I am and my feelings toward death do not make me a bitch.
Now that that’s out of the way…
So let me back up here a bit before I go on. I do have to say, I’ve never had anyone really close to me die. I mean, my parents died but both their deaths were a blessing to me.
Mom’s, so she would stop suffering, and
Dad’s, so I would stop suffering.
So would I feel differently about death, say, if my son died? The only one human being on the planet whom I adore with every ounce of my being?
Probably not. Don’t get me wrong. Of course I would be sad that he died. I’m not heartless contrary to what some may believe after reading this. I just know, or believe, that he will be in a much better place.
I truly believe this.
My thoughts on death
I’m not one of those people who sob hysterically when someone dies. I don’t grieve for days, weeks, months or even years.
Yes I cry. Yes I feel emotion. Yes I will feel sadness and loss.
