I Just Need To Stop / myLot

Every time I think I'm doing better dealing w/my little brother's death, the anniversary comes up on me (around this time of year) & just opens up the floodgates of feelings all over again. I leave tributes I know he'll never read, I read tributes from others who knew him in life, and it hurts. I am starting to think I just need to stop, stop going to his FB, stop reading the tributes, stop leaving my own. It's never going to be easy for me to ACCEPT he's gone from this world, but it's a fact. I rather remember him as I knew him, remember his life, not constantly be reminded of his death.

Try and remember the good times. You will never forget; but with time it will be easier to handle. Just remember you have the support of everyone here.

We always remember them on anniversaries and the tears will fall. Because we love them. I have the same feelings. Acceptance is one of the hardest parts of grief. But is it necessary so you can move forward. Moving forward doesn't mean leaving him behind. He is always with you.

Heavenly Father, I ask for your loving arms and comfort to be wrapped around @jnrdutton Lord, I ask that your love flows through him. I ask for your peace over him Father. Lord touch him, heal his heart God. Help him Lord God to know you love him and to know you are the answer to all of his pain. Thank you for loving him so much Father. In Jesus name I pray, AMEN.

I feel your pain and hurt in my heart but I know my Father is a healer--you don't have to believe--I have enough faith for the both of us. Just know I am always praying for you and your pain will be healed.
