Has Death knocked on Your Door?
"LIFE is unfair," President John Kennedy once said. Well, if you are unlucky, as many people seem to be, including your writer, that can be very true. DEATH is way different. It plays no favorites, and makes no exceptions; everyone born will leave whatever life they led. Many billions of human beings have gone through this process, over time, each one an individual, different from everyone else. But after the Grim Reaper leaves, it doesn't take long for some things to happen, others not.
The manner of DEATH can precipitate some special attention toward the body of YOUR loved one. A police investigation, coroner, autopsy. If someone YOU LOVED was torn from your embrace by a criminal act of violence, the end of the funeral could be only the beginning of your sadness. Some evil people escape Justice, and there is nothing you can do about it, right? WRONG. You could face the fact that his/her LIFE is OVER. Then get someday soon, realize that YOUR LIFE is NOT over.
If the perpetrator is NEVER CAUGHT, and years go by while you fret about that to no purpose, that evil person is KILLING YOU, TOO, a little bit every day. Very badly hurt people (members of tight knit families) let one bad moment consume their thinking, forever. The common NewSpeak type word of late is CLOSURE. Almost every TV "news" show features an interview of people in various stages of "seeking" CLOSURE.
If that's YOU, and the thug who ("allegedly," of course) caused the DEATH of someone you loved, you MUST start LOVING YOURSELF, and STOP "seeking closure," because it's the "in" thing, and you're supposed to. Just think one moment, OK? THIS moment. Would a person who LOVED YOU really WANT you to go on forever, and never LET GO? Are you maybe "seeking" REVENGE? I hope not, because you will never get it. All you will do is HURT YOURSELF, not the evil rat who did the deed, and that won't help the wonderful human being that was stolen from you, will it?
So, that didn't happen to YOU. Your loss can't hurt as badly as that, but it hurts you, for sure. What can you do about HOW YOU FEEL? Not much, right away, because you must honor the great person who won't be there WITH YOU in the FUTURE. That hurt, so terrible when you hear the SAD NEWS, will diminish as time goes by. Trust me, I've attended many funerals, as someone will surely tell you, "TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS."
Absolutely NOT TRUE, and you know it, if this is the second, third, fourth, or yet another funeral of a dearly loved person in YOUR LIFE. Because those memories are not just fading away, YOU GOT BETTER BY YOURSELF. How much TIME it took was up to you, wasn't it? Look to the FUTURE, your future. Try thinking more about that, WHEN YOU CAN, because it starts TOMORROW. And if you're really hurting, ask someone FOR HELP. if you can't do it ALONE.
I hope my words at least bring you some PEACE. Good luck!
