It's hard to be the first to say "I will go on" because there will be someone who will say "how could you?" When everyone comes together in a wake and pledges to go on AND to help each other, then moving forward is a powerful, bonding, and relationship building exercise that your lost friend would be proud of. My condolences as well, you are a gifted blogger and I do hope you are able to continue.
