Recently I’ve been talking to a bunch of people about their loved ones who have passed away recently. There are two things which seem to be the same no matter who I talk to, so I figured that I would share it today with you. The first is that the pain never goes away. No matter what religion or beliefs you may have, the pain of loosing someone close to you never goes away. It doesn’t matter how long it has been, it doesn’t matter what has changed in your life it will always be sorrowful. Sure time does help, I mean everyone had tons of different things happen to them and over time you learn to adapt to life without them. But in reality there will always be days, occasions where you will miss the loved one. This may not be a bad thing because their memory lives on, and what they were to you will live on. However, it would be interesting to see how many ppl are sad and lonely on days like Christmas, Dilwali and Eid. 
The second things ties into the first, and it is that most people wish they could have done more for the person. We are all guaranteed death but unfortunately we never know when that is, so it important to appreciate the people in your life who mean most. Appreciate people you love, appreciate ppl who care about you, appreciate people so that you will not say I wish I had done this or that. I know its hard don’t get me wrong, but I think that in life if we truly love someone then it is our duty to make sure they know it and that they feel loved. It can be as simple as sending them a card and reminding them how much you mean to them or picking up the phone and telling them. I urge you all to go to the dollar store the next time you are at the mall, pick out a nice card (doesn’t matter if there is no special occasion) and mail it to people you truly love. It will cost you less than $2 but it will mean more than anything.
On that note…Dadima, Didi and Buggie you are three people in the world who mean the most to me and I love you with all my heart. Thank you for being in my life, you mean more than words can express.
