For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No-one knows how many times,
We have broken down and cried,
We want to tell you something,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without.

I like that.
I firmly believe that at the end of the day, I will be reunited with my soul mate. I just need to wait patiently without causing any fuss.
Waiting tho is sometimes more trouble than it is worth.

Cheers, I think.

Heart felt sorrow for your loss Rick. No, our lost loved ones will never be forgotten, and I desperately hope you are right when you say we eventually learn to live without them. Trouble is, I'm a painfully slow learner.
Robert (Olbod), in the past 4 months since I lost my wife I have been doing a great deal of internet research relating to the possibility of being reunited with her when it's my turn to go. Although I am still a bit sceptical, it would seem that there are many thousands of people more educated and intelligent than myself who firmly believe in the afterlife and claim to have documented scientific proof that it is a reality. Hope they're right too.

I lost a fiancée in '91 in between 2 Christmas holidays and her parents because of their religious beliefs took her back home (eastern Europe) and I didn't know anything of it for 6 months until It was investigated as a full missing persons event.

Then in '93 i was with colleagues in a situation and out of 18 of us, only 2 of us got out and the other didn't make it all the way home. 16 people in about 3 hours gone.

*hugs*... enjoy your life while you can, as we have seen by this thread (and from personal experience) life is too short... There is no shame in loving life even if you have lost a loved one.. and I am sure that your soul mate would want nothing less for you. *more hugs* :)

I can't believe it's five years ago that these four children lost their lives in a tragic accident.

Accident

I planted a tree for each of them in a special place on our block, I've watched them bloom and grow and often sit and think about these kids,

It makes you realize how fragile life really is.

Sue.
Ta.
I like hugs.

Robert.

We've had a rough year.
With everything happening, I keep reminding myself that things could be much worse.
I read this thread this a heavy heart for those who are bereaved.

Today I lost my Dad.
We had a strained relationship, and there is much left unsaid.

Hug them, Love them and say the things that need saying.
Dave.

Good thread.........I'm coming up for 12 months next month since I lost my dad who I was very close to. His passing still haunts me as I virtually watched him die. I think about him every day and to start with found it very hard to cope with it all. To say its been a tough year is an understatement. Thankfully I have a great family and an awesome cirlce of mates who have stood by me and helped me through it all. For me this was my first major loss and it certaily puts a different perspective on life. My thoughts also go out to those who have lost their loved ones....
