Pain, unless it is physical, was sold to you (by your culture).

When you lose someone untimely; all left is never ending guilt, fear, and pain.

I love you every day. And now I will miss you every day.

...nobody was ever really ready to turn off their mother's machine, no matter what they thought; to turn off the light of their childhood and walk away, just as if they were turning out a light and leaving a room.

There are no more surprises and shocks in life, so that I watch the flame without agitation. For me the greatest reality is this and nothing else... Nothing else will worry or interest me in life hereafter.

Death is tough for the people left behind on earth.
