The Worst Part About Dying

The worst part about people dying is living: finding out someone you loved has passed away, then having to go to work or go to school and be productive. Life can't stop. It doesn't have a pause button to push and let it sink in. So, we cry while we drive or cry at night or cry whenever it hits us. Recently, I have had two people close to me pass away. My grandfather back in June, and a dear friend of mine just this week. And it feels the same: random, unexpected. Our lives keep moving, while we have to move and try to deal with the news at the same time. So, everyone dealing with hard times, take a break to relax. Take time for yourself to let things soak in. And may the dead live in our hearts until our last days.
