To truly grieve the loss of a great person, you must never stop wanting to stand quietly with your eyes closed while the rain kisses your skin. Or to lie on the grass in the summer beneath the open book of the sky, to watch the clouds drifting gently across its pages. You musnt ever give up your heart to bitterness; like hurling a priceless treasure into the depths of the dark. This is still, after all, a beautiful world and all the love you shared with them and all the wisdom you learnt from them, will enrich your life forever. The sharpness of your sorrow will weigh heavily with you, because you feel that something is irrevocably lost but you forget that as long as you are breathing, everyone you have ever loved is alive in you. Each of your cells will keep whispering their names as you go about your day. To truly honour someone who has left this Earth, you only have to live your life in a way they would be proud of: with eyes prepared to dance and arms wide open to reach out for love. If you can speak their name, not with tragedy but with joy, they have overcome; even their own death.
