Replies Uruz 7 Posted at 8:46 pm on June 25, 2008 Life goes on . . Thats pretty much all there is to it . . When we learn to accept reality, we know no matter what we do, nothing will change what has happened. Cherish the memories, but move on in life. . That would be what the person would want you to do . . When one of my close relatives passed away, it took quite a toll on us, but it really helped when we learned that the best way to get over it was to keep him in memory, but to get on with life - nothing we could ever do will bring him back . . I now keep some of hits items close to hear (well, not so cuddly things though), I have his briefcase, and his badminton raquet that I've been playign wtih all these years. It still stirs up fond memories but I no longer feel the grief of losing him . . Time heals a lot of things. .  we just gotta learn to suck it up in the meantime. Some suggestions - maybe take a nature walk and enjoy the beauty of nature and the little things around us, it really helps to get a better perspective of life - Take note of all the little insects and life around us, and you'll feel much better. honeybee3333 Posted at 9:13 pm on June 24, 2008 omy that is sad i think maybe you guys would have made a cute couple someday (hunch, I dont even know who you are) sorry!
