I'm so sorry that I am just now seeing this post.
Guru,
My thoughts and prayers are with you, your friends and all of the victims and their families. It was such a shock to see the breaking news. I wish I knew the right words to comfort you.
I would suggest (when the time is right for you) for you to help keep their memories alive. When my grandfather past, I started a journal all about him. I wrote down things that meant something to him, such as his favorite football team, his favorite meal. The nickname he gave to me. But most important I wrote down my memories of him, how he would load us up and take us to the local joint for an ice cream cone or how he would come by and watch me during a high school softball game and yell out, " Hey ump you wanna borrow these" while holding up his glasses, when the ump would make a bad call in his eyes. By keeping this journal I have been able to pass on my memories of him to others.
There were many nights that I would make an entry and cry my eyes out, but now that I am much older and yes forgetful, I have a record that refreshes my memories everytime I read it. I believe my journal helps me to feel that I am still very close to him.
If at anytime, you feel able to share a story or two about your friends, I would loved to hear them. |

Bee, I thank you so very much.
Maybe with a bit more time, I will be able to share some wonderful stories here on the forum.
It may also take a while before I can start a journal about them, but I certainly will do that and thank you for the very good suggestion.
Your Guru too!
P.S. So glad you are making more time to be with us. You are a very valuable member! |
