Finally get use out of all those skirts I keep buying . <| sep |> So this may not be with every family but I lost a grandmother right before Thanks Giving , and you know what ? The whole family got together the next day with all our food and gathered to grieve , planthe service , celebrate and share memories . Memories are there so you can remember them and share , just because that person is gone doesn ' t mean they aren ' t without in heart and mind . Relish in the memories , tell other people , laugh , and love . Death is something that happens and it can be a lot but remember that for some who die it ' s a relief . For those that die young , it ' s tragic , but they live on in the life of those that grieve . I ' m currently in bed with my SO who ' s grandmother was found on the floor this afternoon , she had stroke this morning . She ' s alive and as well as one can be , I ' m thankful for that . But if today had turned out differently I would be just as thankful for having had her in my life and that ' s what you need to focus on . If you did just loose some one , I offer my condolences and a ear that listens I ' m sorry , but remember they ' re still with you as long as you remember them .
