I don't know if time will ever heal a loss but it will at least sooth the pain a little. <BR/><BR/>As for what to reveal and not on your blog, you are so dead on. Sometimes I get this creepy feeling you can read my thoughts. There are so many things that I would just like to blurt out and I find myself holding back. I started to blog anonymously and now that I have blogger friends that I will probably never meet I still find myself wondering if they will judge my actions and thoughts. Are we ever really anonymous?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21226961.post-72773468420148865132007-05-08T22:25:00.000-06:002007-05-08T22:25:00.000-06:00I'm truly sorry for your loss.

You are wise in understanding that events like this always provide an opportunity to learn new things about what's important in life.<BR/><BR/>I think you did good on this post. Life is a mixed bag. And when we choose to write about life I think there are times when we have to be willing to write about the difficult stuff if we are to be authentic.

I know we all struggle with the level we want to disclose and more so, what has a "message" and a "happy ending" - it is life and it is messy and there is unhappiness, sometimes a bow does not sum it all at the end. I have come to realize that sometimes we just have to let it be and let it end where it ends.annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15439772399487069107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21226961.post-88347402304483565842007-05-08T10:52:00.000-06:002007-05-08T10:52:00.000-06:00Here is the bow for me: "time will heal and it wi...Here is the bow for me: "time will heal and it will also reveal." I am guessing that for you, writing helps you sort through stuff and put it in perspective. A side benefit for the rest of us is that there are often pearls of wisdom in your posts.

I'm struggling with that myself a bit right now on a few matters and hopefully in the next few days I can reveal a few things.<BR/><BR/>Loss of a loved one is never easy. My grandfather died suddenly, of a massive heart attack, we weren't ready and it was so hard. My aunt died of breast cancer, she had been sick, was in remission and it came back with a vengence, she was rediagnosed in May and died in September, we were prepared, we knew it was going to happen, but that didn't make it any less painful or sad than my grandfather who had been unexpected. You just move forward and eventually it gets to a point where you just realize they are with you, you remember them in little ways and you go on cause it's what you have to do. And in cases where they were sick, you know they are in a better place.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17638725150045549860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21226961.post-45741370097924577252007-05-08T09:32:00.000-06:002007-05-08T09:32:00.000-06:00Loss is heart-rending.

The thing is, grief reminds us that we loved and were loved. It reminds us to acknowlege and extend our love daily. It reminds us of mortality - our own and others. Though, death is hard, it is part of the cycle, and leaves a lesson in its wake. You are blessed in your love and in your family. And I believe they are blessed to have you.Backofpackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13779487553272296752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21226961.post-67970135080267327932007-05-08T09:12:00.000-06:002007-05-08T09:12:00.000-06:00I view death as a graduation.
