Pictures are the keys to memories.
Things that happened when I was looking for pictures, something that I always do when I look at them.
Broke down and cried yesterday. Almost of my pictures that I have on my facebook account are me and my sister. My sister (the youngest) passed away three years ago at the age of 25, quite young right? Her death was surprising, unexpected, cardiac arrest while teaching.
The pain of missing her a lot dawned on me all of a sudden, can not hold myself not to cry, no matter how i hold myself not to.
It has been years, but still emotional remembering how we were together and that we can not have the same moments like we used to do.

I am sorry for your loss. I know that the pain is still there. The only thing that we can hold on to is that she is now with the creator and living the best life.

Young dying of cardiac issues is becoming quite common here. Sorry to hear about your sister. Did she have any signs at all?

@Lucky15 Sometimes although there will be symptoms we do not pay attention. It is therefore necessary that we have our parameters checked periodically.

That is very young. So sorry about your sister. I cry when looking through my pictures as well. Both my parents are gone and all of my grandparents, too.

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your sister at such a young age. We too-often hear the cliché "cherish every moment..." but we never really pay much attention until it is often too late. Life is a precious gift. They say time heals all wounds, but I don't think that's necessarily true. Those wounds are with us forever, we just learn to cope with them. Luckily, you have many photographic memories of your sister to cherish, even though looking at them may be emotional. But it will help keep her memory alive in your heart and mind. God bless!
