what is it about the death of a loved one that is so hard to pass? its a hard road to take without them here and it seems that time really isn't what's needed to heal all wounds as they say. people handle grief in their own way and i think one should take all the time one needs. but its hard and part of life and we should take the steps that is needed to handle a passing of a loved one and get back on track with our own life.they might not be here with us but then again, yes they are !
