The pain of having someone close to you die could be a comfort.
So, my grandfater, the last of all of my grandparents, is fading fast. I know that, technically, I shouldn't feel too bad because he's almost 88 and has lived a very long and full life. But, let's be honest - does saying that make anyone feel better?
As his days are coming to a close, it really makes me sad. But, it got me to thinking, maybe being sad is the best possible outcome one could hope for.
After all, if I wasn't sad, it would mean that he and his life didn't mean anything to me.
So, I guess, in a way, being sad is the best and most genuine way you could say thanks to the person for all the good times and love.
Thus - to my grandpa - I'll miss you so much.

All my grandparents have died and I miss them everyday. I work as a nurse in a nursing home so miss many of my adopted grandparents when they go on. The circle of life. It doesn't make it easy though!! I am not very religious, but always find comfort in thinking they are all looking down on me and guiding me as my guardian angels. Take care!!
Thanks Butterfly.
It's nice to know people out there who don't even know one another can care.
By the way- I love your avitar. It's pretty.
Thank you!! :) Hope all is well.
