grief

Grief is an ongoing process.
Sometimes when I think I am over it - something happens to remind me of the loss and coming to grips with losing my parents.

It's something I walk around with every day - regret, curiosity, sadness and knowing there are missing pieces.

I am okay for a long time and then I remember and I can get sad and upset for days on end.
You don't ever really get over death. Especially when you get hit by it in rapid succession.

And in a way I the experience of their long sickness and death taught me to live and to know what is important.

All the things that used to bother me don't anymore..
The things I didn't take the time to do before I do
All the things I used to be afraid of I am not anymore.
The things and people I cared about I don't anymore
and
All the things I thought were important - I realize simply are not.
I found out who cares about me and who doesn't
I know who my friends are now, sometimes in unexpected places.
I found out who loves me too.

I think I have grown more in the last two years than I had in the whole of rest of entire life.
