I'm so sorry to make you cry!! I'm sorry! I had a substitute teacher one day who looked exactly like my uncle and in the middle of class I just lost it. It's perfectly okay to. I know when tragic things like this happens, people like to go into seclusion, because it's easier. But right now I think the (at least it was for me) best thing is to surround yourself with as many loving, compassionate, understanding people as you can.
While your Mibba family prays for you :) We all are, and we all will. <3
Allie, I am so, so, so sorry to hear that it is not pathetic. Even if you didn't know him that well, he was family, and family is family. I'm sorry to hear that... I have no idea what to say.
You know you are always welcomed to come to me if you ever need to talk
@ ladyschrei Thank you so much. You have no idea how much your comment made me smile (and cry).
@ writingismypassion23 I am so sorry that that happened to you and your family. :( And although that is such a unique death, it still means the same. These things happen, and I know everything will one day be okay. But you're right. You're so right. I'm so lost at the moment and I don't know what I'm supposed to do to help. I feel so useless because that was my cousin and I can't do anything about it. Great, now I'm bawling again. It feels like I'm in some underpaid, over-dramatized, low budget movie. Except the worst part is it's true. By the way, I am religious, so thank you. That means so much. Thank you. You are so sweet.
It's really, really hard when something like this happens. The accident that shook my family happened two years ago as of August 4th, and there is not a single day in which I don't think about him. My dad's best friend from birth was really like my "adopted uncle", you could say. He was like my second dad, my best friend. He was golfing and his cart tipped over and killed him on impact. I mean seriously, when does that EVER happen? I get mad sometimes, and I get sad a lot of the times with all my questions and knowing I'm never going to hear, "How's Olie?" ever, ever again. What I want to say to you is that life goes on. I hated when people would tell me, "it gets better". How? How do things get better? Life and death are so separate, there is no in between stage where "it gets better". It's not like they can cure him from an accident that killed him two years ago. So no, things won't be the same again. But everything gets easier. I've learned to love my own life THAT much more, because I know I can't do it for my Uncle Eric. It's not pathetic, we all need some good cries. I still need them, even today. I'm here for you, please, please stay strong. I don't know if you're religious or not, so please please don't be offended by what I'm saying, it's just some advice that got me through my uncle's death. It's a quote saying "If God brings you to it, he'll bring you through it". I use that quote for EVERYTHING now. I absolutely hate it when people say "everything happens for a reason". No, no. No. If there's a reason for everything then tell me why my uncle isn't at his two little boys soccer games right now. This quote about God really helped me, it promises that things ease up on you. I'm definitely here if you want to talk :) I'm praying for you.
