Till Death Do Us Part

After the demise of a family member who truly was loved prompt this blog. One is never able to determine if one life will end or when one life will begin because the clock continually tick-tocks. Life simply happens or one life simply ends because it's inevitable. This is why one should make a conscious decision and spend time with friends and family because there isn't any guarantee. Yes, I know one takes life for granted. When death happens shortly after death life goes back to the norm subsequently one's loved one is forgotten until his or her loved one's memorial.
One belief is after their friend or loved one demise he or she would make a 360-degree shift and transform their own life going forward in a positive view. When their loved one formulates a footprint to follow it is never traced instead the footprint in the sand is washed away in the water.  One is supposed to utilize their love one-footprint to make a difference in someone else or their own life. When death happens nine times out of ten one life in his or her loved one name is unchanged. Most likely their loved one death devastates and abates thenceforth one resumes living life merely like death never happened in the first place. DO NOT ALLOW ONE LOVED ONE DEMISE TO BECOME IN VINE.  
Actually, one doesn't have the understanding to articulate who lives or demise. There is not a turn-on or turn-off button in life. Its simplicity one has to prepare for when the inevitable occurs. Death is a topic that is not near but far away because it's a topic that's not a conversation piece. One doesn't sit down at their dinner table and strike up a conversation about death. Why is that? Death is a subject that one prefers to steer away from because some identify it with sadness, fear, devastation, loneliness, and abandonment. Death depends on several factors such as the philosophy of death that is considered as a process. I don't want to indulge in the process of death because that is an entirely different blog at a later time. Many rejoice over a friend or a loved one demise. Others may moan about the death of a friend or a loved one. Either way, these are uncontrollable emotions and it is how one channels their emotion. The key is to exercise coping skills with death such as in the manner that it may uplift the person who is grieving the death of a friend or a loved one. I deem it significant depending on the circumstance of the death that one abstracts the negative emotions following the aftermath of a friend or loved one demise such as happy memories. Memories are vital following a death such as a relationship before, characteristics,  personality, etc. There are many moments that one can reflect on that may fulfill the void that's absent in one life. Take this time and reflect. Talk about goosebumps as I reflect on my father.
Consequently, exercising death and mutating that energy toward something positive will sustain their loved one memories forever, therefore, he or she will never be forgotten for example initiating a non-profit agency for teens or a program for young mothers who need an emergency shelter or non-profit agency for the homeless, and group grief counseling. There are several avenues one may focus their energy toward generating the support of a friend or a loved one demise.
The sad aspect of this that is it takes the death of a loved one to alter one life in an optimistic viewpoint to support others who are or have experienced the same struggles following a death. For example, many human rights activists had a demise, and after their death programs, schools, streets, and holidays were inserted to honor them. I'm conveying a similar concept. It's a sort of healing process for those who are struggling following the demise of a loved one. These leaders will never be forgotten. Death is supposed to alter one thinking positively because one's loved ones are no longer living lives. After death, all that matters is what would one do to honor their loved ones in a positive view.
In conclusion,  many people wait until death happens before allowing friends and loved ones to know how much he or she is loved and missed, however; their loved ones aren't any longer alive to view the commitment to their cause. Also, why is it that others communicate more to the dead and subsequently to those who are yet living? Presently, some aren't speaking to their parents, siblings, in-laws, etc for whatever reason. As soon as death happens subsequently there are regrets such as I should've or could've done something different, however; it's too late. Now, there will be some type of psychological damage because he or she refused to mend the relationship. Death is difficult for everyone but it makes a difference how a person channels one emotion. In fact, healing is a channel one wants to inherit because it allows one to live their life vicarious in constructing a legacy in honor.
