So...

... I passed by an accident on my way home. It was a head on collision thing, ambulances all around, saw a guy on the ground and... man... i tried catching the local news but so far I came up with zilch. I so hope everyone is alright. I mean, I had a really good teaching day today, i was singing as i was driving back and suddenly i came across this

I'll be over there if you need to talk or whatever else.

Thank you, my lovely. *supersmishes* Weird brain chemistry, is all. I'm really good at stomping on shit like that down and burying them. Just not always.

Sending hugs.

ETA: Went away and thought about my granddads for a while. I miss them. Personally, I favor reincarnation. Or Valhalla. Not too wild about the Christian eternity, cause it sounds boring to me. I have no deep thoughts to offer you, except that if we didn't have loss and sadness, we'd take the happy times and good memories for granted, and not realize how precious they are.

*sending hugs back with smish interest*

See, that's the thing. I used to say that i chose reincarnation cuz, you know, sounded fun, but... there's this reasonable aspect of me that refuses it. I think i'll start thinking that Death the way Pratchett presents it is the way to go.

I do agree with you, though. Remembering people you love, that nostalgic bitter sweet thing is of the good. What is left behind isn't enough, but it is behind, you know?

*hugs you*

i wish i had an answer for you. i think i believe in an afterlife. i want to at least.

and i wish your cousin all the luck.

*hearts you*

I wish you had an answer for me too. *hugs and hearts and little sparkly things*

Since neither of us have answers, i'm going to go and say that i believe in everything Terry Pratchett writes. It's very comforting. It beats my alternative, that there is nothing after death.

Life is flavoured with gains and losses. Because life is so frail and ephemeral, we should savour it; spend time with our loved ones, enjoy them and not waste time with anger and disappointments. If we have never lost, how do we appreciate the love we have

[ultraviolet9a]

Oh sweetheart. *hugs* Your thoughts are like a smooth, calming river. I'm sorry you didn't get to know your grandfathers, but, if there is an afterlife, i hope they watch you and think how shiny your mentality is.

I don't know about the rest. I'm kind of like Mulder, i want to believe, want it to make sense, but one part of me thinks everything, EVERYTHING is random. Coincidence and random-ity? Randomosity? Whatever the hell that's called. Because shit happens to both good and bad people, and well... ill fate is very democratic, isn't it? Doesn't discriminate. On the other hand, if random (biological etc) actions lead from bacteria to humanity/nature, then there is a miracle in this randomness too, yes?

So i do feel grateful for things, i do. It's tinged with fear, but it is gratefulness nonetheless.

Besides, Freddy Mercury had it pegged down, no? Show must go on. :)
