Death is part of life and we will all die at some point. That is the only thing we have for sure in our passage through this world. I believe that despite being a natural part of our life cycle, most of us do not want that moment to come.
Thinking about the death of a loved one (family, pets, friends) or our own death causes fear and pain, and that is without it even happening. But when it comes and touches us closely, we realize how vulnerable we are, no one escapes its effect.
We have all been in one way or another in contact with it. Everyone has their own way of dealing with and overcoming loss, but we all go through a grieving process, it is human and inevitable.
In March 2023 my maternal grandmother died, I loved her dearly and felt her loss deeply, she was 86 years old when she passed away. She lived a full life and I thank the universe that I was able to have her for 45 years. She was a noble and good person, this is attested to by the many people who remember her fondly and all the family she left behind.
Her death brought sadness to my life, but also some relief. She was ill for 5 years and her last months were filled with pain. Sometimes things happen a little crooked and rest comes slowly and painfully for good people who never did wrong to anyone, but that is life and unfortunately there is nothing we can do about it. Now the suffering for her departure has turned into resignation and I can think of her without her memory hurting, on the contrary...it makes me happy to remember her.
This is my succinct response to one of the topics proposed by Galenkp for this weekend.

With time one remembers without pain, that's right, recently that's what I was saying to someone, that I had to mourn and that the first year is hard, but then you remember without so much suffering and she confirmed that this is what is happening to her.
A big hug!🤗
Time heals all, thanks for reading Amonet. A big hug back 🤗.
Thanks to you, it's a pleasure to be here!
The memories of our loved ones are always in our hearts.
That's right, and in some way they help us to continue. Best regards.
It is terrible. I think what we fear most about death is not dying per se, but the agony of the dying process. In my case, I would hate to be a burden to someone else.
I am sorry, my friend. 😔 All those we love and who have departed will always remain with us in some way.
If only we all died peacefully, without suffering or pain. If we just shut down when our body will reach a certain limit, that would be great....but it's too good to be real. A hug Amanda, nice week 🤗🌞

Remembering them in the best moments we spend with them is what comforts us. Nice reflection on the subject you have made. That is life. Dear friend for you a big hug from ❤️
That's right Mamani, remembering with affection is what remains after death. A hug back to you, nice week.
