Guess no one cares...

No - I care and almost answered earlier but then after reading the description part I realized we were thinking differently. I was thinking of those lost and walking around not knowing they're dead without Christ.

Aaw *gives soft cuddly sock puppet hug to sad friend*

I'm not religious, but I know you have your faith to take solace in, and that's good. One of my favorite wisdoms I was fortunate to have shared with me along the way is the lesson that the very young know how to live better than adults do, who tend to forget how! You see, a toddler when confronted with a sad situation will immediately grieve, fully and openly and until the grieving is done. And we need to do that, for when we don't, it stays inside and gnaws, or worse waits until the right moment to sabotage us with a wave of anxiety we cant even explain. To avoid that sort of 'mystery' to have to suffer through, be like the child Linda Joy. Cry, it's okay. Sometimes we need to. And then we can feel better and move on. Life, like everything, has a beginning and an end. I too am struck lately with how so many people are becoming done. It says to me that I am approaching that time myself (and I don't even have anywhere to go!). Also..if one has not lived fully or well enough, there is sorrow in it being over, instead of the warm glow of basking in one's successes and victories and cherished memories and lived out dreams... DON'T miss out on anything you always needed to do. Celebrate your lost cousin, and other friends, but then look inward and find what you need to attend to so you will live, and have lived, fully. And stay in the right now; for the present is aptly named, it is a gift...it does not contain the past, so it has no regrets...it does not concern the future, so it doesn't include having to worry..it is just living fully in the moment, which I have found is where joy is. And life is about joy. -having it, giving it, sharing it. Grieve Linda, so you may be done and get on with living. And don't hold back on either. *hugs again*

It's sad that everyone of us was born dying. (Romans 5:12) "That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned

Well.... everyone who lives has to die. There is no need to be surprised about it. Rather, what you should be concerned about is that you are more distant than you think from people close to you.

thats happened to me too but not recently, like i lost 4 family members one time in 2 yrs and two of them were my parents, havent had anyone die lately

Everyone around me is gone everything passes everything ends.

Every once in a while I feel that way. But I am glad to have not felt it for a while. So I do care because just have not seen this until now. I hope you get to feeling better soon.

I feel myself dying.

Yes - the answer is a simple Yes. I am Karin from fb. Nice to see you here.

It makes sense to me, that if you're a Moron, you would want to die as soon as possible. So you could start pumping out babies on your own planet. And start your new career as a god.

Oh my, oh my ! Sweetie I'm so sorry. It's good to cry and to let it all out, that's how the "healing " begins. I know exactly how you feel. When I was a young man, I took it in stride and thought to myself it's just part of life .. You're born, you live, and you die. That was all fine and good until I got a little older and I realized that for some unknown reason to me ... I would out live almost all of the people that I have loved. As the years past, they went down faster and faster. Cancer seemed to be the reaper's favorite method, with heart attacks, accidents, drug overdose, & suicides running close behind...... I'm at a point in my life that I'm tired of giving eulogies, and in the last year alone I've buried 10 people that I held dear. Did I cry ? You can bet your sweet ass I did, for every last one of them !!!! They aren't coming back and I'm left behind to sort shit out for them. Is it fair ? No, it's not. But life goes on and we carry on. Every spring the trees and plants come back to blossom, and when they do ... I see my loved ones in those blossoms, and I find the courage to keep going on with my own life.

We're all dying. Even you.

no just suffering...

The older you get the more friends go on vacation!

I just wish more would be!

sonnetinnes but not lately

No, not everyone, but at my age (80) many of my friends are.

It is said that there are worse things than dying, and you're experiencing what that means. Dying is nothing - I've been there. What bothers me more is the pain and grief I'll be leaving behind when it finally happens for me. Don't cry for them - cry for the loneliness you'll feel without them. That's what it's all about.

Now that I am older, people my age are dying every day.

Everyone is on the death list so in a way people around me including myself are all on the way to a coffin at some stage. Our lives is like sand slipping through fingers since time is ticking away and we meet our death eventually. Sorry to hear about those who you lost. It’s never a pleasant feeling to lose someone. I can empathise with that because I’ve lost a few people who passed away and meant something to me.

Well, everyone that breathes around you is living.
