So sorry for your loss of a great teacher.Your grief is warranted, and to be expected.As long as you keep his memory alive in your heart,he will never truly be gone.Remember all your good times and carry on as best you can. This is what he would want you to do :)
You have to now accept the grieving process and keep yourself strong! Think of all the ways this man positively impacted and changed your life. Now, carry what you’ve learned on to others as if to keep his spirit alive
Thank you, i’m going through the grieving process. Baby steps.
Maybe i just miss his ‘hello lilies’ every morning in the office.

He is in heaven. Thank you SC.
He was actually my office mate. I worked with me. I usually see him in the office every morning. He was always the first one to greet me. And hand me some plain biscuits. He had diabetes so he only was allowed to eat plain crackers.
So him and i talk before we meet our classes. He taught literature and research. And he was the one who encouraged me with finishing my masters.
I finished the course last May. And he was already in his death bed.
Yesterday, i achieved something. He would have been happy if he was there in the crowd.
He may be in a better place now, but apart of him will always be with you.
Hes your angel now honey. the word loss is sad in itself. try not to see it as a loss. a little reminder’ he has left his heartprints on you and others. I think i have about 3 angel posts maybe that will help some to skim over them. but for now- This is not goodbye
For I have left my heart with you,
The love that’s deep within me,
Shall reach you from the stars,
You’ll feel it from the heavens,
And it will heal the scars.”
Thank you friends. I plan to write a tribute for him.
I am on my way to school to do a report. And i will be discussing about
one of his poems.
I’m sorry to hear that…I know losing someone that you know and care about is a hard thing to deal with right now but don’t let it get you down and i wish you all the best..take care
awwh im so sorry =(
its always hard to lose someone who meant a lot to you. be strong!xx
*hugs*
I am saddened to hear of your loss. Lilies, you are a great Encourager, and I have a feeling he was blessed by you as well, I know I have been. Your words are always kind and full of compassion and faith, he was blessed to have known you in person and my deepest condolences go out to you. Errol

I’m also sorry if you have lost someone before. I now know how it feels. We both know they are in good hands, they have finally rested and such, but i just miss my friend.

Hi Errol nice to see you again around here. Thank you. And now i am trying to use the same words i tell others who have lost their loved ones or friends. Easier said than done really, but we all get to die. So this is a natural cycle. Hugs.
It’s as you say yourself, this is a period of grief that you have to go through. Look at it, if you can, a bit differently.
Remember the best things you can about your friend, remember the times he made you laugh and smile. The times he was just naturally nice to you. You have some very strong motivation there to celebrate. You have something your friend wanted you to have, which is a little bit of his love.
This he gave you to keep for as long as you want it, that hasn’t died. It’s embedded deep inside you. He is probbably waiting for you to share it with him again, somewhere in the future.
So think of him whenever you can, if it makes you sad, cry. One day you will have just happy thoughts and memories, of a very special friend.
A friend that wanted you to be happy, while he was here with you and wanted you to have that happiness and love to lean on.
What he has left you, is a free gift of love. One that you can do what ever you want, with. You can keep it for yourself, or you can let it grow and let it give you strength, so that you can share it with others.
I think it was a beautiful thing he has given you, pure innocent love.
Hi Thep, thank you for that. His friendship will always be in my heart. What you said is true, his love was pure and gentle. It was a white unstained sheet.
And now that he is gone, i’d have to keep it in my heart where it should be.
He was an award winning writer. A loyal husband to his wife. And a loving friend to me.
Hugs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry for your loss:( I hope it gives you comfort knowing his spirit will live in your heart and sharing your feelings about him with us confirms he was a “special man”. Enjoy your memories as they where his gifts and that’s probably what he’d wish for you to do. When you smile when you think of him, he will be smiling back. God Bless:)
many many hugs hun… so sorry to hear of your loss…
as with the grieving and not crying until now, it is weird how grieving is different for each person… it is good to grieve and get your emotions out.. so let those tears fall… it shows that you are human and that you care… but keep his memory alive hun.. remember all the good that he has done for you and everyone around.. many hugs, love shie.
Thank you for taking time to read this post. I was up at night and was viewing youtube videos i came up with the above and i remembered my friend who passed away.
Yesterday a student returned one of his borrowed books which my friend owned. I have the book with me with all his hand writings. I silently cried grieving the loss.
I remember the moments when he was silent by the corner of the office and i was just watching him close by.
I celebrate his life while he was still here with us. And i’d keep those memories in my hear where they should be.
I know he was very dear to you, you talked much about him.
I am sorry for your loss.
only in body, but his spirit lives on as well as his memories… hugs babe.
Lilies, I am sorry for your loss,It is a very tough part of our existance. I have lost many people I love. I find it helpful to do something in their honor. I hope your sprit lifts soon.

hugs you hun :) hope your day is happy
