Hi, got the link from the other Anonymous_X blog. Anyway wanted to let you know you are not alone. I have lost my grandpa and two favourite cousins one after another within a matter of three years.
My grandpa lived a good and enriching life, my cousins were still so young when they passed away. I was nine when my elder cousin died after an asthmatic attack, ten when my younger cousin succumbed to leukaemia, and twelve when my grandpa passed away.
But strangely during their funerals, I did not shed a tear as I believed they would be in a more peaceful place where they would have no more pain. It would be a better place for them rather than to continue to suffer.
I was labelled as heartless and cold-hearted since I never seemed upset, but I think it is no use crying over someone who is gone. YOu should treat the person well enough when he / she was still alive, and not crying your heart out when the person is already gone.
So no, you are not cold and heartless. If anything, I admire your strength for accepting the truth and knowing she's in a better place.
