I am new to the group as of today 2/20/13. I hope it is a wonderful experience. My main focus is to deal with the loss of my family especially my mother who passed away on 2/14/2010, on Valentines Day.

Thank you for your kind words and sharing with me Christine. What struck me about your loss'es was your younger sister. Peace be to you on this. Over the years I belive in my heart that our loved ones that are gone are only gone here on earth. They are in our hearts, mind and spirit. Try to hold on to that.

Gary, I am so sorry for your loss. I know what you mean by it hitting hard even years after. I lost my grandfather in 2006 and even now there are times when I want to share something with him and I just realize that I can't. Lately it's been even worse because of the death of my younger sister. Every good thing in my life remind me of the people that I can't share it with. I have found this site to be helpful. Befriending others who know the kind of pain I do and being about to talk to them about it has helped me. Blogging has helped me as well. Sometimes I just have to get my thoughts and emotions out. I hope you find the same kind of friendship here as I have.

Thank you for the kind words. I did have a hard time making out what you wrote But, I did catch that you dad passed and i understand your loss. They say it gets better in time, however, with me, with my loss, it keeps hitting hard. Peace to you and be well.

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
