Where death is just a memory...

Lets rewind. Go back a week, or two. Where everything was fine, at least, it seemed fine. The world hadn't caved in at that point...not yet anyway. Isn't it crazy how instantly the world can fall apart and how long it takes to put the world back together again...a new world...a new normal. One action, one word, one choice, one thought, one emotion, can make someones world come crashing down. And then it takes years to build it again...sometimes less depending on the person.
Won't it be great, when we can one day look back on death as a memory? Something that once was, but will never be again? Oh yeah, death, I remember when that used to happen.
Instead of looking back on our loved ones...our friends and family as memories, precious pieces of our lives that once were and will not be again in this life...maybe ever. I wish we could make the exchange now...death for life. It will not be so in this life...
So we, eventually, accept our new lives without them(whoever they may be) and we carry on, through the pain(not around it), through the memories, and tears and anger. Keep in mind that one day death and pain and tears will all be a memory. The empty spaces will be filled. The tattered and worn edges around the heart will be mended. No more worry, no more fears. Sleep at last, peaceful dreams, and perfect love...
