See you later!

A few years ago my best friend died in a work related accident, and although you learn to get by; you learn to adjust, deep down you still feel a part of you missing .

Everyone grieves in his own way. Some cry their eyes out, others shut down and live in a daze for a few weeks, while others start to ask the horrible ‘But Why Questions?’  

My best solution to ease the grieving was to find new things to do; new tasks and different ways to keep myself distracted. However, this proved to be much more difficult as when the mind starts thinking the same thoughts over and over  it is not that easy to switch your thoughts from negative to something positive, especially when you just simply can see the silver lining.

There is no simple manual that we could follow when you lose a loved one. If there is I would be a proud owner of one for sure.

I am certain that many people attempted to write something similar but the fact that everyone grieves differently would make this  not a very profitable book. 

 

From this experience you also learn how to offer support to someone who is going through the same situation. 

One nice thought that I carry with me all the time is that every time that I get the chills it’s my friend telling me that he is around and that he taking care of me.
