Yes, we have to accept that sorrow is a part of our human condition, even when we have worked through our issues and let go of our "baggage." I see so many people on this and other forums showing only the happy, carefree side. If they are feeling otherwise, they leave or "stop out." I have done this several times. It is not realistic to just say that we have to own our feelings and not blame others for them. We sometimes need to share the sadness, the loneliness. We need to support each other in a caring, non-judgmental way, especially if our families are not there for us or if we are living alone. I hope this can be a circle of understanding and support.

Thank you Sabriyah for your wise words *smile*
Yes we have to be there for each other not everyone has a family, as you said, to share the grief with...
Think we can do much here for one another...
