Lost Happy Returns
dusk arising said:

But those words came from your heart and the deed is done. More important than the words themselves is the emotion which created them. You know where that resides, you know how real it is and how strong it is.
That emotion will mature with time and you will find one day it has become a foundation of the strength with which you survive in this life of ups and downs.

Sympathy Hyenas
psychofemale said:

They don\'t want a truthful answer

They want me to say \'I\'m okay\'

Repeatedly I lie FOR them

So that THEY are not in dismay



My grief feels unfairly hijacked

When I feel sorrow so deep

I avoid this stupid question

Like body and mind avoid sleep



ohh how i love that part, very good writing my friend

You have just made a very important statement here.. we each respond in our own unique way to subjective loss and there should be no rules when it comes to grieving.... Neville

Thanks PP ~ for caring & sharing ! ANGELA (30) & I (35) are saving up for a HOUSE in East Essex in 2020 (at least £350k = $500k !) We are both in excellent Health have good secure Jobs and are fiercly in LOVE ! We need to save about £100k for a mortgage ! However we are both committed Christians and donate 10% (Tithing) of our joint Net incomes to the Church & Charity (that does not include our Mortgage Fund). We believe this is Biblical ~ we are coerced to do it ! Over 70% of the Worlds Population are worse off than and Millions are Homeless (we both rent flats at the moment because we are not cohbiting ! Angela is in NEW ZEALAND on work exchange !) BUT ~ WE are both savng for the FUTURE ~ AMEN. Please check our site. Yours BRIAN & ANGELA.

No Father Christmas
Debsspot said:

So sad. It hurts so much because we have had the gift of their love in our lives. We keep our loved ones in our lives when we remember them. Lovely words of tribute that touch the heart.

Blew my mind! Grief takes over reality and becomes our world. Everything else is insignificant.

A wonderful light hearted way to pay respects to a loved one. If laughter was part of your lives it should live on. Great first post.

HELLO PP ~ Welcome to MPS it is a very supportive & interactive site ! I agree with your Title ! We call them A CELEBRATION of the LIFE of XXXXXXXX. These are best held AFTER the Burial or Cremation ~ OK We don\'t wear ALL BLACK either a bright tie / shirt / blouse etc ! Showing slides of the deceased is a good idea and always cause a smile. Friends & Family should be encouraged to relate humorous incidents etc ! This could work for a TEENAGERS Funeral as well as 50+ The funeral of a CHILD needs careful handling but should not be mournful ! I am a CHRISTIAN and all the Funerals / Thanksgiving Services we run at our Church have an Element of Hope & Assurance of Heaven when we shall all meet again. \"We sorrow not as those that have no hope !\" Also we have positive Hymns & Readings ! All the funerals I have attended and participated in this year have had an element of JOY. Thanks for sharing ~ A Challenging Title ~ Yours BRIAN
