There is a heart connection that remains with us after the death of one we love.
That connection is for time and eternity.
Each of us that special connection with Justin in his or her own way.
I can still hear his voice, in what seemed to only be hours before he was gone. I thought that i was saying goodbye till tommarow, not for...god damn it...forever. When i heard the words my sister was saying in the message i think i went numb...("brian just called me, umm justin died")...the only thing i rememeber is the overwhelming urge to just jump outta of the car. "this isnt real, no, its a sick joke. Right?"
Im not good at this stuff. So i guess i am just trying to deal, and listen to everyone else deal as well. I do know that ill miss ya jus...:(
"Grief has taught me many things about the fragility of life
and the finality of death"
. . . Vulnerability to death
is one of the given conditions of life.
We can't explain it
any more than we can explain life itself.
We can't control it,
or sometimes even postpone it.
All we can do is try to rise beyond the question,
"Why did it happen?"
and begin to ask the question,
"What do I do now that it has happened?"
