Celebrating a life instead of mourning loss

by Scott LaPlant on February 20th, 2010 | 1 Comment |

I recently lost someone very close to me. While the initial shock was probably the hardest thing to deal with, I’ve found myself celebrating, remembering, and enjoying their life instead of mourning the loss.

Sure, I’m incredibly sad and obviously I’m going to miss not being able to pick up the phone and talk. I’ll miss not seeing him and being able to bounce ideas off him but, at the end of the day he’s left me with wonderful memories. I’d rather enjoy these memories right now than cry over his passing. Maybe I’ll do that at some point but, right now it just seems more appropriate to laugh at the good times.
