Had a bit of a wobble thinking of my dad this morning. For anyone else who has suffered a loss, I think the only way to deal with it, is to try not to let it consume us completely. Some people end up so stuck in their grief, that they forget how to live, choosing instead to spend forevermore in darkness. That isnt what our loved ones would want for us. Of course its important and quite often essential to shed a tear sometimes. However, we have to remember that it is OK not to think about our loved ones 24/7. If we did our lives would become joyless and quite possibly pointless to boot. So even though we dont want to, we have to try and put them to the back of our minds sometimes, thus enabling us to smile again and live a happy and meaningful life as the universe intended. We cannot change nor control the things that life throws at us but we can choose and control the way we react to it and not just for loss. For all negativities in life there has to be a positive. Therefore I choose happiness over sadness, love over hate, compassion over cruelty, kindness over selfishness, light over darkness.
