This was beautifully written, well done, and thank you for voicing these fears I’m sure we all share. The saddest thing that has happened in my life so far is losing my two dogs, within 3 days of each other: one literally couldn’t live without the other. I’m so sorry for your loss, it gets easier with time.

@ Aaron: thanks, friend. :]

@ kyutie: yes, thank you. =] I can honestly say that writing this down has helped tremendously with how I am viewing things now.

@ kate: Oh, those shorts are to die for! But the price makes me think otherwise. I suppose the only practical thing to do is go to the thrift store & purchase old jeans for the purpose of cutting them to shreds. :] Thank you for the idea!

@ sandy: I remember reading about your friend’s passing. (he was the one that died of an overdose, no?) & I remember feeling such sadness because I have personal experience with that tragedy. Thankfully, it didn’t end in tragedy, but my heart went out to you. Thank you for the kind words, love; I appreciate them.

@ Natalie: I know you sincere, my dear & I appreciate your heartfelt words. Thanks. ;]

I’m so sorry for your loss.
I’m still kind of in that La La land when dealing with death, and I’m afraid of the day when I finally get it. I like your idea of death being a final contentment. And your wounds will heal in time. I hope you know that I’m being completely sincere with this.
Stay strong.
