But you said as much because you are opening up slightly. All the best Azur.

I think it is fine to be closed, share what you want and let the rest, rest! Sorry I got behind but I was in Indiana for a wedding and it has taken the wind out of my sails! We traveled 3,600 miles in 52 hours on the road over a five day period with a wedding in the middle! sam

I don't attend funerals
It may seem cold to some but this is how I see funeral.
Usually someone who never met the deceased, knows little to nothing of them tries to tied their lives up in a neat little bow in 30 minutes or less. No honor to the person who is now gone.
I have left clear orders...no funeral for me. Celebrate my life instead of mourning my death.

It's really great to see you Azur..
...when I think of Blogit, I think of you. Death is cruel; my father died 38 years ago and I remember when it reached the time when he'd been gone longer than I knew him but I still miss him. Hang in there, Azur...keep sharing.

Good to hear from you, Azur. I was unable to go to my favourite aunt's funeral, years ago. It took me several years to get over her death. I kept pretending to myself that as I rarely saw her anyway, her death didn't make any difference. It was a long time later that I was finally able to acknowledge that it did.

It's wonderful to read you again.
Your blog has proven insightful for me -- I've been closed to some things myself, avoiding certain situations, not talking about what's scaring me. Anyone who's ever lost someone important to them can understand how necessary it is to avoid the place where a memory originated -- might have seemed cold to those who don't live in your shoes. It's not.

Wise advice indeed, Azur..
I don't think it's cold, simply human. Nice to see you posting.

You seem to be going through some very difficult things Azur. No, it is not cold that you cannot attend funerals at certain times or in that certain place. I cannot attend funerals, and sometimes I wonder what will happen when I'm finally forced to.
Be well. You have my prayers.
