I don't think we could live without it, if there were no loss, we wouldn't value things/people as much as we do.  31

I live on the opposite coast than my family. When someone close to me dies I understand it and then I pretend it never happened and that they are still on the other coast. I know this is unhealthy but I can't endure the pain of loss. 8

As a Buddhist, loss is just another facet of life itself. It is nature. Knowing that it is a part of nature of life, makes it more understandable and fine to me. 12

Good day to you. I experienced many losses in my life the most tragic was when my mother killed herself in front of me at the age of 16. After that my family fell apart and never have spoken to them since. I'm 47. I've tried many attempts to reunite however they are in still in pain and hang up each time. I on the other experienced much pain for many years after. I pulled out of it by having positive people around me and telling me that I am someone. I turned my life around and am very successful today. I went into therapy and dealt with the issues to the best of my ability. I will always face issues over my mothers loss, its how I've managed to deal with it in order to survive. Pain can be used to gain inner knowledge if directed from the heart. I'm in the process of putting all my diaries from my youth and what I had to suffer at the hands of others and then myself. You will repeat patterns if you do not look at how they formed and why. I said I would not discuss this over the internet and for some reason I feel that it might be important. Pain and loss are apart of life as well as happiness, success, courage, strength and love. If you would have asked me whether I would be where I am today those many years ago, many and including myself would probably of said NO WAY. Keep in mind that a lot happened before that event as well. So for me, I'm one of the lucky ones who made it out of a pit. Climbed at times, screamed at others however always knowing in my heart that there was something better than what life was at that point. It was the many different hats I wore that made me a survivor. I am unsinkable......and its that strength and compassion inside that has helped. I recently went back to the town I was raised in and visited the spot where she died, it was along time before I could. It was a little overwhelming but I knew it was the time and I could handle the emotions that came with it. Thank you for allowing me to be able to share this. In my opinion we are all spirits before being human and this helps me to be able to put things into perspective for me.....all my love to those that have experienced any loss. It is a process and not an event.....kat....pain inspires strength that normally one might not be able to know......my quote and it will be in my book....... 35

You take it one day at a time, remembering the good times,holding things you love closer to you, forgetting any wrongs ,liiving with what you have left,and holding strong to beleaving this is not all there is in life,keep contact with dear freinds,and showing love and kindness to all you love. do somthing you enjoy, take in all the sunshine you can and live life as if you only have one more day to be kind to another human being,dont try to find answers to things that cant be answered,for only god has that power, 12

The idea of loss points us back to the glory and grace of God. When we lose someone, there is nothing and no one that can totally fulfill our need for consolation besides God. He also shows us how temporary life is and reminds us to live it to our best potential while fulfilling our very specific purpose. 7

we could never leave without life, loss is an opendoor to new life. Once life is gone or taken away, God gives it back in more ways than one. 3

we can live with loss with God by our side. without God to stregthen you and support you, we wouldnt be able to. alot of ppl say they cand eal with it easy, but with out God it is a lot harder and most pppl just push it out of their lives or pretend that the loss is still here. jsut becuase God helps you doesnt mean ti doesnt hurt, it will still hurt but God eases the pain of losing somehitng and helsp you move on. 7

I think we need to be stoical about loss - its a part of life and if we didn't fact any loss, we'd be spoiled, petulent, and weak. Loss makes us stronger and allows us to grow and become more mature. 5

When I suffered the loss of my fifteen year old son, suddenly, without any goodbyes, I wondered how I would ever be able to move on in my life. I had an inner strength that was there & it helped me learn how to cope a little easier with each passing day. Before my son was killed, I always thought I had my priorIties straight but I didn't. I reshuffled my bag of priorities after losing my son, & the priorities that were on the top, were now on the bottom & vice versa. I now embrace life differently, knowing that in an instant, I could lose another son. I live each day as though it was my last, which has made me a better person in many ways. What a difference a day makes. I learned that all too well. Life is so prescious. 19

I believe that you are right, in that we all deal with loss on every level. From the child who misplaces a toy to the teen striven to perfection getting a below par grade on a test to the adult who is separated from a loved one by an argument or death. 6

deal with it one day at a time and don 't ever think to into the future the it could have been or what would i do when so and so happens it will make things even worst and don't think what if and should of or think of any regrets it will not make a difference thinking that it will only make things worst.pray all the time at times like these is when humans kind of remember god ,god is true you need him he does not need you .Be strong and know that we are all going to the same place sooner or later just different departure times.My prayers are with you . 4

If there was no potential for loss, we wouldn't be able to appreciate the gift we've been given. Everyone dies. Nothing lasts. Time is unrelenting. Because of this cruel fact of life, we must savor every single moment we have together. 5

I'm sure by losing the ones we love we do grow to appreciate people more. I wouldn't know how to deal with it though but I have be lucky enough not to lose anyone close to me yet. A lot of people do die around me I don't know them that well but it does make me think of the people I love. I worry sometimes since I haven't lost anyone yet and it does seem like everyone loses someone that any day now someone I love could die. 5

How can WE live with loss? Well, WE aren't all the same & that makes all the difference in the world when it comes to coping with a loss. Could we truly live without it? Since there is no known cure for death, to deny that it exists is just setting yourself up for more pain & mental anguish in the time you have on this earth. Accept death & you can go on with the art of actually LIVING! Finding joy in a pile of dog crap can make or break a persons life. We are trained to look for the bad/ugly, yet most of us have a harder time finding the good/beauty in a so-called bad situation. 7

The privlige of life is reserved for those willing to fight and remain strong everday. You can live with loss, it all has to do with mentality,im sorry but you must put that person aside in your mind, they are in a better place now. Once they are gone...theyre gone... 1
