Let's remember and smile for those we loved and lost. They deserve it, don't they?

Hey Everyone ,

Four years ago, I lost someone who meant the world to me, my bunny. Not just a friend, but my strength, my everything. Man, he was something else – good looks, brains, artistic talents, guitar skills, and a chef in the making. At just 15, he had this charm that was beyond words. But life threw a curveball, and that horrible night took him away in a car accident.

We were like two peas in a pod, you know? I never had a bunch of friends; I didn't need them. He was my go-to, my morning ritual was rushing to his place, waking him up, and spending every waking moment together. We were inseparable. There wasn't a day he didn't surprise me with a gift – jewelry, chocolates, or heartfelt letters and poems. Yeah, he got me hooked on writing, and I ain't complaining.

The world had others who admired him, but for me, he was it. He'd drop everything to be with me, always shielding me from the world. When the bullies came around, he'd wrap me in a hug, saying, "You're the strongest and most beautiful person I know." I'd roll my eyes, but he never gave up on saying it. Sometimes I'd wonder what karma points I racked up in my past life to deserve him.

He was the guy I never wanted to lose. My parents would've traded me for him, and I wouldn't have minded one bit. Today marks four years since he left, and the ache in my heart is still there. But you won't catch me shedding a tear; he hated that. Instead, I remember him as the angel he was, happy and at peace up there.

I owe who I am today to him. He taught me to fight, to smile, and to never doubt myself. His words echo in my head – the strongest and most beautiful. I won't let him down. So, on this day, I reminisce about him, not with sorrow, but with a smile. Because that's what he'd want. Remembering those we've lost should be a celebration of the joy they brought, right?


Now, tell me your story of grief. Let's remember and smile for those we loved and lost. They deserve it, don't they?

🤍✨
