Do you ever get that feeling?… When someone whom you love has died and you expect the world to crash down around you, or at least stop and take notice. But it doesn’t. People go on as usual. Life goes on as usual, but not for you. You can feel a deafening silence. It’s as if your ears are screaming out from the very strain of blocking out all the noise. You keep staring at nothing in particular but you can never process what you’re seeing. It hurts so much that you feel your heart is being crushed by an iron fist… Nobody cares. They don’t even notice. And it makes you all the more furious and sad… And you feel lost and drowning in hopelessness.
This October, I am taking my blog to the next level with Blogchatter’s #MyFriendAlexa.

Well…yes people who die do create some sort of a void (may be for some time-depending) but then if you look at it practically, no ones here on earth to live forever…everyone leaves eventually. Death is an eventuality…the world has to balance out with the outgoing and the incoming.

Death is a part of life. And the world carries on regardless of who is there and who isn’t. The loss we feel is our personal loss and it takes us time, sometimes a lot of time to come to terms with it.

Yeah, the world moves on but the people who lost their loved ones, it’s like the world just stopped for them. I’ve felt that, so I can relate.. felt angry too that others just continued to live normally.. unaffected…

Heartbreaking to lose a loved one. This is life where one come and one departs. All part and parcel of life.

I don’t think people move on literally. It’s in solitude that memories rush home. Death is a painful loss that is hard to heal.
