The Lost of Loved Ones. How to Survive?

Today is Father's day for most part of the world. Today may also birthday for some mothers in some part of the world.

Our family had a tragic lost of our loved one about 4 months ago, exactly.  The cause of death still not known until today. She simply did not wake up from her sleep. A young, beautiful and vibrant lady.  Left behind broken hearts and souls, family and fiance.

Today is her mother's birthday.  Today is also Father's day.

How does one wish happiness on day like this when the pain still visible. The agony beyond description. The lost is profound, awareness of what is missing is just too much to bear.  That day still too raw and too clear in our memory.

The question of why will be there for the rest of our lives.

The answer to the cause of death, we are still waiting for the result from the authority.

FB has become the mother new obsession. She felt her daughter presence when she is in FB.  Could it because she is surrounded by hundreds of photos of her daughter, full of laughter, smiles and happiness? That somehow make the days more bearable?
I am not any different. Still browsing FB, to see her from this distance. The feeling of "this can't be true" still strike me every now and then.

I am thinking.  In the event like this, religion or different beliefs are no longer visible.  We are joined together in sorrow.  In my prayer,  I pray that God will give strength - physically, emotionally and physically to all of us.

I am asking myself.  Here I am, thousands kilometers away, not knowing whether I should pick up the phone.  Or should I just ignore today, and let it pass by?

I am a coward. Decision is made.  I just write.

To you, her immediate family, I pray to God that you stay together and stay strong.  I know no amount of words can take away the pain.  I hope time will heal. No target date, no deadline.  Let it flows.

To her fiance, we know how much you love her. 6 years of memories together were precious. You are a good man.  Perfect for our girl. You used to be the envy of the other men, for you have her love.  You are her only love. Now that remains eternity. I hope in the months to come, you are able to pick up the broken pieces and move on with your life. You are still young. She was your past.  You will find your future.

She will not be forgotten.  She will always be remembered.

R.I.P my dearest niece.  We all love you, always!
