But it doesn't make the pain and the tears any less. The only thing that "makes it better" is lots of time, and even then, it's never really <I>better</I>. You just get used to the loss, enough that you can function again.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16307213773466556564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8240639443730906600.post-84995698909083156442008-05-30T04:53:00.000-07:002008-05-30T04:53:00.000-07:00I know what you mean. There's a part of me that k...I know what you mean. There's a part of me that knows I am doing what I need to do, I am living my life and doing what has been given to me to do. Work, being a wife, a sister, a daughter... somehow I feel that I should have been able to make more time for being a better friend for her. <BR/><BR/>I guess it's one of those things you go through when you mourn, you think of all the things you could of, should of and would of done. It does seem to bring to light your priorities, and make you realize that some things are higher up on your list of important things to do than they should be. For me it's playing WoW in the last year, it has taken up more time than it should have. Now that I don't play quite as much, hopefully I will be able to focus on some of my friends more. It is too late for one of my friends, but hopefully not too late for others.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12770434324643327781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8240639443730906600.post-17789040358185342172008-05-29T21:46:00.000-07:002008-05-29T21:46:00.000-07:00>>all the things I should have been doing instead ...>>all the things I should have been doing instead of being so self absorbed. <BR/><BR/>I know what you're saying. And I know I'd feel exactly the same way. But I <I>do</I> want you to remember that taking care of Paul and going to work is NOT being "self absorbed." It's doing what you've been given to do, in the place where you live now. That's not going to feel true, but it's true nonetheless. (Now, why can I <I>say</I> those things even when I cannot feel them to be true in my gut?)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16307213773466556564noreply@blogger.com
