Death is not natural and for the most part, people still do not know how to cope with the lost of a loved one be it their relative or friend. However, a true friend will not change they will walk with you through all of your pain and suffering.  There is no quick fix except the promise given in Revelation 21:3,4.

Real friends are made for times of distress. (Proverbs 17:17) This just shows the attitude of the friends you have, Do they really care about you?

My friend shared with me a video on Empathy, and as I read some of these shared stories, I cant help but think about that video. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Evwgu369Jw)

The difference between being empathetic and thinking you are helping is simple. The grand "well at least you" start, is a prime example of people who are not emotionally touched by your situation, or who are but don't know how to show it. When you run across these people, it's best to let them know they can stop with  their statement before continuing. Also, tell them that nothing they are saying is a help, rather, its offensive, and tell them why. Trust me, you will feel better.

Those who are empathetic may not know what to say, but through actions they will show you that they emotionally feel some varying of pain. These are strong people, because it takes vulnerability to show emotions outwardly to people sometimes. But nevertheless, they will offer you a long warm hug, they will cry with you, and they will stand by you (sometimes silently) to comfort you.

I've experienced both type of people, and I strive everyday to be the empathetic person, because they are gems in these "critical times, hard to deal with." - 2 Tim. 3: 1-7

I can almost promise you all that you won't run into any empathetic people before you go through the masses of ignorant people. You may have found that even some of you were not as equipped to deal with a grieving person as you are now that you have went through the struggle. Either way, those few gems you run across, hold on to them and be the good friend they deserve. Don't use up all of their resources, and then can't be there for them cause "something came up" (And that something can be a VERY important something) however, we never want to take for granted OUR loved ones, whether they are still with us or if they have passed on.

I hope everyone on this blog are working on becoming that precious gem to someone else! Have a better day everyone!

Hi Dream Moon,

I'm sorry that you are going through so much pain. It is not your fault. The Bible promises that there is hope. Read Isaiah 26:19:
Your dead will live.
My corpses will rise up.
Awake and shout joyfully,
You residents in the dust!
For your dew is as the dew of the morning,
And the earth will let those powerless in death come to life.

Keep your hope alive- you will get to see your dad again when he resurrects.

MJ

I lost my dad a month ago.All my family had each other for support,which is good,but I was left out.I had 2 dear friends die last year,my only friends,so that meant NO support,not one hug,from anyone.I cried alone.I grieved alone.I was alone,and still am.I was close to DAD and was with him in the hospital up to the night before he died.My mum didn't want me in the hospital room as nurses made me a bed,mum said no,get out,so I said my goodbye to DAD that night.Mum came and got me next morning,8 hours after dad passed.I begged the nurses to come get me at the time,mum said no,she can wait.
I saw Dad,was so upset.Then I was told to go,and my brother was coming,I wanted to see him to,be with the family,but I was ignored by all of them.Not a hello,not a hug.
But that's okay,I got through it alone,I had to.
The funeral I wasn't asked to speak.
The service after,I sat alone.I have never felt so alone and lonely in such a crowded room before,and my father was gone.I will.never forget that horrible feeling.
I miss DAD so much,his birthday is coming up and my heart goes out to dear mum..and a friend of the family told me to stop.seeing my mum,that I talk too much,stay away...
I went and cooked,cleaned and worked around mums house,giving emotional help too.But I have never received any help,kind words,phone calls,no txts,emails.
I don't know how I'm getting.through this,and it was my DAD...I wish my family and family friends could of just given me a hug as I struggle with the loss of DAD..But I'm told,i did well at the funeral. What does well mean? My dad had died,and I did well?
My family shut me out completely.Mum recently had me stay the night,so I helped her with everything.We went to Light The Night,for Leukaemia Foundation,as Dad had leukaemia.I had to leave my dog in mums bathroom,for 2 hours,as he isn't allowed in the house when I go out with mum.Next day there was a threat to me written in red,that to shut my dog up,or they will shut it up for me,and horrible words,and a Nazi sign at the end of it.Now I can't go up to mums with my dog anymore,and go out with fear of perhaps my dog been poisened and my mum doesn't need the drama.And the thing is through all my lossess recently,it was only my dog who comforted me,no one else..
It's so horrible....
Thankyou for allowing me to share as I never have,with anyone...

Several months on I am coping with life.I have emerged with fewer friends but good ones,"good" in the true sense of the word.The ones that stuck by me had been through the same thing as me,this did not occur to me till later.As for the rest ...well they will learn.I do not forgive them because their is nothing to forgive because in a way they are like children.
