When tragedy visits our lives, it’s hard to know how to behave. Do we keep up appearances? Try to occupy our minds? Sit still and wait until we feel better? I don’t talk about my RL here. Mostly the weather and my maniacal shopping habits, mirroring those in SL. But I have suffered a major personal loss. Someone very close to me has passed away. He was very ill and had suffered for many years. I am happy he’s at peace; but my life is forever changed with him gone. I decided to blog today to soothe myself. Listen to music and think of him. He once logged into my avatar in SL and made her a man. I can laugh at this now – but at the time, I was angry. LOL.
There is a saying in my faith, “May his memory be a blessing.” That is how I am moving ahead today. Remembering the good times together and his literal bravery and grace in the face of so many health challenges. It turns out, he was a teacher – and I didn’t realize until he was gone.
Hold your loved ones close.
SL will return as scheduled next time.
xoxo
