So sorry for your loss unicorn. A gentle hug for you.

So sorry Unicorn ((((((((((hug))))))))))))))

Thanks, guys. I'm not really better - it takes a long time for me to get over not having someone to call 2 or 3 times a day and gossip - but I'm back.

Hi Unicorn 23,

My sincerest condolences to the loss of your special friend and although I am not in your heart or mind, I can relate to this since my beloved friend Air Force Hero died January 24rth and although I am doing much better, I still think of him, the only answers are not to get any close friends or feel the hurt which I am not enjoying in the least, but I told my friend I loved him often since he knew how to encourage me many times, no one can make you feel great sooner than needed, but remember your friend loved you and cared, and he died January 24rth and I am in contact with the one who adopted him and they are very special to me. I hope my words have helped your heart and I hope you have made some progress since you posted your message. You are NOT alone and have a similar situation to deal with, I think loving friends is more important than not hurting. I am not all wise, but if I can share love, it's the blessing I want most of all.

Thank you, Vernon. I have improved only slightly - I still miss my friend very much and this has left me with an empty feeling,

AMEN!! It is not fun, but slight improvement blesses me a lot, and it's normal to feel empty, you are NOT strange, because friends like we had don't change, but remember how they blessed and helped us and remembering how bro gave me a wonderful legacy, I know you will make progress with time, you can do it!!! I thought people got tired of my talking about bro, but it has helped me a lot. Thank-you for responding here. I hear songs which remind me of bro which make me cry and I have been told it's depression, but I feel better when I cry and not when I don't cry, I hope this encouraged you some, since that's what we are all about.

I very much miss bro and when good happens, it reminds me to say Eeeeee to make me smile. there was a time when I was ashamed to cry, and calling it depression sure leads me to not cry, but I am not going to let others lead me in that way, wouldn't be prudent. Yes, that was more Goldilox humor.

I dont remember Goldilox but from what I hear she was a wonderful friend to everyone. Crying is healthy - it cleans the eyes and lets your emotions out.

And crying heals the soul and heart, people think I cry too much, but RUBBISH!!! You see Goldilox here when you hear or read someone who cares sincerely about how your doing so she in real life hasn't left us at all. Of course you know when you read weird jokes which makes you smile, she is there too. She left a wonderful legacy for all of those who knew here and when you hear of us, she truly LOVED ALL of US!! She showed her love by encouragement, and that's how I share my love for others, encouragement!!! I am confident your friend left a wonderful legacy of compassion, good ear and encouragement, Praise God!
