Loss

Unavoidable in life...

To love as intensely as we do in life, there has to be a time where we lose people we love otherwise love wouldn't exist in our life. Without the loss of the people we love, love wouldn't be as magical, beautiful and amazing as it is. The loss feels overwhelming and like we could never be whole again, but in the grand scheme of things, if we eradicated loss, we would eradicate love. And what would a life be without everyone if we didn't love them?

The tears we shed are a constant reminder of the love we have of the people that we lose. The tears are pure love, every tear shed is love shown. Hurt lasts a second when we put it next to how long love lasts. It lasts a lifetime whether the people we love are physically there or no longer with us.

It's true when they say that love never dies, it continues beyond time and space.

Every tear represents a beloved memory remembered, a lifetime of love and a bucket full of longing and missing.

Another loss equates to another star in the sky watching over me.

Love you Grandad- go dancing again with Nan in the clouds.

RIP
