On life and death and time.

Wow Kat.

I feel I need to comment, albeit belatedly.

You really struck such a delicate balance between reminiscence and emotion. To me you evoked, in not many words, the essence of the really lovely and beautiful connection that your parents had, and gave a hint to how the loss of that has affected you since.

hugs, and thank-you for sharing such a personal part of yourself :)
 
woe, dude!

this thread is somewhat overly sentimental but i'll shoot anywho! -

i saw an episode of OZ(violent drama set in a prison) on tv the other night and it kinda touched on death and survival instincts. For instance someone is in jail for life, without the possibility of parole. So this guys gonna spend the rest of his earthly life in jail. You can probably imagine the cycle that can follow. THe mentality could be catasthropic, because they have to deal with loss of all of the world

so people end up clinging on to thought rather than expression, which leads to the need for an even greater need for outlet - hurrying up the process of mortality(i hope that makes sense)

Just as you cannot have white without black, light without dark, peace without confrontation ;life without some form of sovereignty
 
this was a very....how should i put it...effectionate piece. The way i've always tried to view death is it will happen to each and every one of us, but death is a gift to any human being. All our lives we suffer without knowing why, death is a way of realeasing that emotion into another plateau that nobody knows, the next step of life i guess you could call it. People will pass in an out of your life forever, just enjoy them as much as possible while they are here, and be happy they have gone to a better place. Death is something great that will happen to us all whether painfully slow, or amazingly quick, and yes i did use the word great to describe death. Death is just as beautiful and awe inspired as life. Don't let death get you down, im sure your mom is happy wherever she is :) I've always said "When I die i dont care when or why, just make it fast so I see less violence through these lonely eyes" I'm sorry if i seem a bit desensitized to your loss, i've dealt with a great deal of loss myself and i most defenitely know what youre going through. I hope i didnt ramble too much and that this helped. Amazing piece you wrote i really enjoyed it very very much.
 
I was flicking thru the pages of words tonight and this piece really struck me. I've never felt compelled to comment on anything here before but this was beautiful, but sad at the same time.

Hope that time has healed the wounds for you.
 
Thanks for bumping this up. It is a beautifully sad and powerful piece of writing. And love gleams from it.
