To: In Key West last night I went to the sunset festival
Me: I would say you have not got past your daughters passing and you carry it around you like a shroud – some people can see that and this woman was one of those.
My suggestion to you, is to buy a pad of lined paper and a Biro and write everything negative down on it and keep doing that until you run out of things to write, then put it aside until the next time you want to write something else down and keep doing that, reading over what you have previously written down until eventually, months or ever years later, you feel you are empty of the emotions which controlled you before – and then tell yourself that all of your misery is on that pad or pads of lined paper and it is time for you to move on with your life and at that point in time, you tear up the pads, or burn them and promise yourself you will go forwards with your life from that point on, never looking back at the past you now have moved on from and which you have left behind.
I have been doing this throughout my life and it keeps me sane, while at the same time, learning how to drop off the s*** which occurs in my life, so I am always able to move on and start again with a blank sheet of paper/mind.
Too many people get lost in their emotions and can’t move on with their life………..
Your daughter is in a good place now and she wants you to be in a good place too.
