Death is just another path, one that we all must take. 'End? No, the journey doesn't end here.'There is no greater sorrow than to recall happiness in times of misery.' - Dante Alighieri.Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. 'Death is nothing else but going home to God, the bond of love will be unbroken for all eternity.' - Mother Teresa.'Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it.' - Helen Keller.'Grief is the price we pay for love.' - Queen Elizabeth II.And if you don't want to talk and just want to know there's another person on the other end of the line, that's okay, too. You know that I'm always up until at least midnight-please know that you can give me a call if you need to talk to someone, even if it's super late.I usually get up at the crack of dawn to go for my run-if you're overcome by grief and want to talk about it one of these mornings, please know that you can call me, even if the sun's not up yet! I know that grief doesn't wait for 'business hours.'.

Please know I'm thinking of you and praying for you, and if there's anything else I can do, don't hesitate to let me know.

I want to be present for you, but I don't know how.

I love you and am so sad that you're going through this.

Please know that however you're feeling right now-sad, numb, guilty, tired, angry-it's normal.

I'm praying every day for your comfort and for you to be able to find joy again.

Warm thoughts for you on these chilly, lonely nights.

Wishing you all the peace and comfort possible.

Lean on me I'm happy to be your shoulder to cry on.

I'm available for grocery deliveries, kid pickups, babysitting, making dinner-whatever you need.

There are no words to convey how terrible this is.

Sending you positive thoughts and lots of prayers.
