It takes time to get over the shock, which no matter how much you think you are prepared for it to happen, it is still a shock. Once you are over the initial shock and denial that often comes with the loss of someone special, you learn to live with it. Also you have wonderful memories and they help you through those really bad times.

Thanks for responding to this discussion. I agree with you. I know memories keep us going for ever. There is a song "Memories dont leave like people do, they always stay with you". Good Day!

If its a loss of a person the time will be the best the solution for me. if its money then i wont fear we can earn it in the future, so its solved.. so every loss has its remedy.. so no worries.

i don't think no one can manage the loss of dear person by any means.

I can understand how much grief it causes. I had to console many being myself in such situations. But have found out some facts that will help us come out of this grief and have success fully applied them. 1. One who has left has only left physical body and has not gone away for ever. We will be meeting them in future not physically but for sure. 2. One who has left the physical body has become free from it and is a relief for them. They don’t just leave us and forget. They still care for us from the other side. So don’t grieve too much they also feel us only that they cannot communicate physically. 3. There is more peaceful world up above and it is much better there then on the earth now. So be happy that your beloved has reached it first. 4. People leave this world only when what they have come to accomplish is over. So give them farewell with lots of love and not grief. Do you send someone from your house to a better place with grief or love?

u shouln't keep thinking about it. It will pass with time. I kinda stopped thinking about some losses i've gone through. But this discussion jus made me think of them again. I guess i'll have to start forgetting again...

Grieving is the first natural reaction for me. I don’t deal with change well though we all have to move on at some point. The person you lost wouldn’t be happy knowing you’re dwelling on them, they’d want you to live at the end of the day.

Cry hard once and it's all over. Although the pain is still there, its not as hard as not crying out at all to accept the things that your loved one is not anymore with you in this world. We have to accept the fact that we will all be with God one day. It is easy for me to accept the loss of my love one that way.

I have and still trying to manage it. I have been able to get now to the place to live again with out feeling everyday and moment the loss. I find getting involved with hobbies, work and family helps alot. Sometimes I really have to make myself to do these things but when I do I feel better. Each day gets better and better and soon it will get alot better...

You get involved in work or other activities that take a chunk of your time...spend time with your friends and dear ones...don't be by yourself..
