My father passed away when I was 18, my mother passed away a year ago. Both from illnesses which no one had in my family.
As someone in his late twenties, it hit me hard. Even today, I cannot seem to enjoy anything since I feel the void of my parents, both of whom I was deeply attached to.
A friend who saw how broken I was gave me the book, "The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tibetan_Book_of_Living_and_Dying https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tibetan_Book_of_Living_and.... It changed my perspective on death. It made me realize that nothing is permanent and it's best not to be afraid of death. A must read for anyone suffering from loss of their loved ones.
To live without the fear of death and to accept what happens, sets you free in many ways.
- kinleyd 11y agoThat is one beautiful book. I've read it twice so far, and it remains on my read again list. I wish you much happiness in the years ahead.
