Padre had a terrible loss, too. I won't share more unless he wants to come on and talk about it but please keep him in your prayers, as well!

Ami, I'll assume you had good intentions but...not everyone likes their issues to be advertized and as far as I remember you don't even get along with Barbie. I'm afraid your threads might not be appreciated.

I'm sooo happy! I mean, cappy.

I think Barbie appreciated her thread, Cappy.

I very much appreciated it as I'm doing wonderful with the whole thing, and said that in my response in that thread. If I were struggling with it then I wouldn't have even bothered bringing it up on LL. Thank you, Ami. It was very kind of you. Hopefully if there's someone else out there who struggles with it that thread helps them.

I'm so sorry. Padre stay strong! We all grieve at our own pace, take your time. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.

He was here last night, Ami.

That's why I pulled this up, unsure whether he saw.

Your Threads are Wonderful and Heartfelt, I am sure.

Thanks for all you do.

My mother passed suddenly last Sunday.

She had suffered a series of illnesses but her condition was stable. I planned on going Saturday to see her but the weather was to harsh to bike commute. Changed plans to go out on Sunday however she died at 4:30 that morning.

I'm doing fine, in fact the past week has been an incredible experience. A sort of blur of mostly positive experiences and a shockingly poor experience I had with a Taurus neighborette..wow is she narcissistic.

When I lost my Grandmother, my Marriage fell too.

That sort of thing happens often, people don't always know how to react. Sometimes instead of pulling together as we should, it results in a blaming one another, or just poor reactions to one another's grief.

It's very common, Padre.

We can only do our best, and we're all human, you know.

I'm Very, Very Sorry for your loss...

No worries EllyX, the Biblical advice is to take a week and feel and then live life.

Took a week off of work, met some new people,cleaned out her room.

Once upon a time I was a serious depressive person, know what leads to that spiral, we are old acquaintances.

What I found is being lost in grief can be a process that grows and grows if one allows.

So sorry for you loss, Padre.

Your positivity and optimism are truly inspiring. I'm sure your mom is very proud. Sending lots of hugs and positive, uplifting energy your way.

Hugs everyone, thing with Mom was she was very Piscean, and old school Spiritual.

No service, just a viewing, cremation, spread her ashes, move on and remember her well.

Now she did leave behind a slew of Cayce books that I believe I shall read.

Padre,
I always try to remember that life is just a passing phase. Although it is not much comfort when things get real. But I always try to keep that in mind all the same. I hope that all is well with you and you will be able to get through this difficult time.

Will say, I'm a bit shocked and amazed that the reaction from people I do not know in real life has been 100% better and more positive/uplifting than the reaction from people I know really closely.

I do not know where that is coming from, perhaps IRL I'm the calm sensible person (see doormat) who listens to their issues with no agenda of my own.

I understand the concern but he may be dealing with the grief in his own way. Me... I try to ride out those times by spending time with family and friends. But when I do get those quite moments where i'm alone I let it all out. I can't even imagine how hard it must be to lose a mom. When my grandmother passed back in '04 my mom was in despair and she cried and hugged me and said "i'm an orphan now". I guess no matter how old one gets they will always want their momma. It has to be very tough to go through that.

Here is the difference AG, the Taurus has known me for 20 yrs, we've walked weekly for over a yr..she offered a hug.

This after she refused to ride with me out to see my mom in the nursing home.

A person I never met in my life, came over, went on a cleaning spree after going out to a mildly expensive dinner. Literally just posted something on FB and she was there.

Off and on during the week was contacted by complete strangers and friends offering condolences or support

Not from Ms Taurus

After the service, I had to keep things together for my Niece, they left and I slid out the next day and was doing shots at 6 am the next morning..Ms Libra said "I'm coming to get you" and by 7 am..was out of the house.

Ms Taurus the night before had merely slammed her door in my face when I showed up early, in person, to cancel going for a walk.

This after my mother's funeral/service

I see this and am just..amazed both positively (which I prefer to dwell on) and negatively (which will be mentioned here once)

Had someone I did not know offer to go to the funeral with me..Not Ms Taurus.

Those who really know me were more or less blasse'.

Do not know if it is showing vulnerability, something I rarely do, or if those around just take me for granted.

"He is solid, never complains, is funny..he'll be fine..now what do I WANT from him"

Loss of mom, tbh it hurts, knew her and knew she would not want me to be led away in grief as she had seen where it takes me before and it usually leads to problems.

That may have been the case in my situation as well.

When the secure one has rocks, it changes the dynamic. Perhaps that can be disconcerting. It really opened my eyes, though.

Baths really helped me get through it.

It really says something about your Strengths, Padre.

I think that has much truth in it, when one is assigned a "role" by others they really do expect one to conform to that role with know deviations from that role.


Upset, calm, steady, that is what is expected. Kinda shocking really, perhaps should have known better.
