Nah, I don't think I'd be able to survive in a world were everyone I once knew has passed on. I'd probably go crazy trying to find a way to off myself.
You shouldn't judge yourself too harshly on this. Being a good person is hard. People who say it isn't are wrong because if it were easy we would all be good. It is an admirable goal to reach for. =]
I know what you mean. Between 2005 and 2008, I lost four members of my immediate family, a beloved dog, and my faith in a fair and just universe. I may have very well offed myself, had I not made several commitments to myself and to those I love to remain immortal.
Until recently I've never lost anyone in my family. When it did happened it just knocked the breath out of my chest. I felt as if I couldn't breath, as if I'd never be cheerful again. Even now, I'm not really over it and I don't think I will ever be. A part of me will always be missing.
I am really amazed at your strength. The death of just one person almost took over my life. It must have been much worse for you. Still, you held on, and that's something not many people could have done.
