One thing I encourage people to do is to think about what you gained from having them in your lives...tell me what did they bring to yours? The reason why I do this, is that we need to balance that sense of loss with the joy we gained....

I maintain the library for others that find comfort from music. Also, I said the site gets 1,000 visitors a month, but it's 3,000 a month. So music must play a part in the grieving process for many people. I'm glad I can provide them a place to go. http://www.memorialmusiclibrary.com/ ephemeral – Although I created the Memorial Music Library as part of my grief process, I’m doing well now (it’s been six years).

I bought memorial jewelry that I wear in her memory so I can talk about her when someone comments on my jewelry. I have also planted a memorial garden with a water pond. The task at first seemed huge and expensive but I found a lot of affordable memorial statues and memorial jewelry here at <a href="http://our-memorial-garden.com/">Memorial Jewelry and Statues</a>. They have affordable memorial items, urns, plaques, and statues that can be so expensive if purchased from a funeral home. We could barely afford to bury our sweet Natasha so I know how hard it can be. You and your family are in our prayers during this difficult time.

I don't know whether it is because my health has not been great recently...therefore I feel weaker. I am thinking about counselling because I think there is something deep inside. The fear is a symton I think, a sympton for something else? Makes a huge difference to receive a comment like this...thank you Ephemeral

That's a lot of traffic. And that's a lot of grieving, too. Have you tried therapy or simply talking friends or anything? I mean in addition to your site? I mean, I've lost my mom and a daughter who didn't make it to term tragically and therapy, music, writing, talking to friends, talking to my Dad (who's the only family member I can trust), and doing a few things that *I* needed to do helped. Wallowing in grief and loss and mourning isn't healthy for anyone, but carrying someone's memory is. And there's a big, gaping difference between the two. (ephemeral) Wow. That’s a lot of traffic.

In honor of those I've lost I created a web site with over 500 songs about grief and loss. Over 1,000 people visit it each month. Music never touched my heart like it did when I was grieving.
