Merry Christmas to you and yours, Nota. I hope you are well.Tres, good to see you around. Thank you for your lovely post, and Newfie, yours too.
And also you and yours, Tres.Merry Christmas to you and yours, Nota. I hope you are well.
Very sorry for your loss, Nota.I think about him all the time. A few days ago I lost another friend, and the last words she texted me were that [hospice] said no more than two weeks, but that she hoped it was sooner rather than later and that she was good. Overall said this too. He was, and so was she, so I am trying to focus on this and how they are both now free from their shackles and the terrible suffering.![]()

This has been a very tough and sad year for me and for all who have been left behind to mourn the loss of someone they loved. But that's all about me-me-me and my feelings. But victory is Overitall's and my friends--they did fight the good fight, they did finish the race, and they did keep the faith.So sorry, Nota...losing someone to death is never easy...it just was not meant to be...

Amen, X...there are many yesterdays and there may be many tomorrows but there is only one today...we should always take the time make it count...I feel like there’s been so much loss lately. We buried my brother last year and I’ve been to three funerals this year alone. Death is just tough. Either you suffer the loss of people you love or they suffer the loss when you go. The only way to avoid that here on planet earth, I suppose, is to not have any deep connections with other living beings but that’s no way to go through life. I guess the best we can do is appreciate those who are still with us and remember and honor the ones that aren’t.
If it helps any, Trix, you are not alone...It's been a really hard day. He's been gone three months tomorrow. I just miss my friend.
When. I'm in it to win it, Daisy.Amen Nota...they've won their battles, we're still fighting andifwhen we win ours, we will see them again...that's a promise...
RIP...Resurrection In Paradise Trix...the best is yet to come...I think for many who have lost friends and family, they know they will move on because there is no other way to get on with it. Today, I just stopped in my tracks. I never felt such grief as I have today for my friend. I know I have a way of putting up a front when it gets to be too much for me, but today, I really felt the grief. Intellectually, this is a good thing, but emotionally, it sucks. I've never cried so much. I said all the right things three months ago, but today I really felt his lost.
RIP my dear Overitall

We can only go forward...one day at a time. The holidays are very challenging, especially those experiencing their "firsts"--Overall's family, Di's family, and others here at DP. It's very hard, but to quote my mother, with the "tincture of time," it does become easier. Most of the time.I think for many who have lost friends and family, they know they will move on because there is no other way to get on with it. Today, I just stopped in my tracks.

Yes, they are. And sometimes, they're very surprising too!I get where you’re coming from totally, Trix. I truly miss @DiAnna. The connections formed here are real.
Absolutely...we tend to take them for granted...until they are gone...Yes, they are. And sometimes, they're very surprising too!
