I never know what to say when a friend tells me that someone they know has died. I feel bad that they are feeling hurt/sad by it, i don’t feel their pain and i know i should be comforting. How is beyond me, my reaction is fake otherwise they would think I’m heartless. Truth, i accept death as a part of life, have faith that there is after life, happy knowing the person is no longer hurting in any way, and i grieve alone when i do cry. Being supportive of others dealing with death is confusing and nerve wracking to me.
