RoyalOrleans Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 In my family, if a member of the fold passes or if a friend very close to the clan dies, we sit around and drink to his/her life. Then we talk about them... On a personal level, I deal with the grief of death as anyone else. I try to think of only the good times and not the bad. Of course when my uncle Dickie died in '99, everyone rejoiced. Even me... go figure. Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.
TheJenn88 Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 In my family, if a member of the fold passes or if a friend very close to the clan dies, we sit around and drink to his/her life. Then we talk about them... My dad and mother's sides of the family are polar opposite. If someone on my dad's side dies, hell. Let there be cake, booze (and sex if there's a lot of strangers at the reception). We laugh, hug, do some crying, talk, remember. It's a celebration of the good memories and the good person that had once existed. On my mom's side, they're all bitter, angry, curse jesus, cry, and slobber on your shoulder if you let them. Then some of them smack you, or try and beat you up, talking in a foreign language all the while - all in an effort to blame you for their death. God damn foreigners Quote
hugo Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 We have a rule in our family. Whenever someone is about to croak they announce they are going to enter a monastary. We pay Ikbu $1 a month to email us pretending they are the monastarian. Eliminates a lot of grief.

Hamza123 Posted April 2, 2006 Author Posted April 2, 2006 Some people think its the person's spirit visiting their loved ones, of course others think its your subconscience working through the fact your loved one is dead. What do you think it is? I honestly don't know, however my heart and my mind interprets it as "everything is okay, and he's in peace". Quote Taking it up the poopchute from Allah since 1990.

hugo Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 From The Holy Goombah book of Goober 3:13-14 Do not expect a wife in paradise. Why do you think it is called paradise?
