However,I am not a native speaker of English but like to tickle everyone's fancy in English, but I think that what make things funny, right?man2stinghttp://www.man2tickle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938448068751972875.post-91615764824823832642013-04-09T00:03:39.783-04:002013-04-09T00:03:39.783-04:00It was nice to read your story.

I am a very observant person and witnessed the sad yet beautiful things you mentioned, and more. I wondered why no one talks of these things and how taboo they are. I think one reason is that it is hard to articulate the emotions and another is you think you will offend someone. like, you are just supposed to be sad and "deal" with it in a timely manner. To me, seeing raw, honest emotions was...of course sad, but beautiful, spiritual, deeply touching and ...frustrating because there are no good words to describe it! Thank you for putting words to it. Both my Sister and Mom died from horrible cancer. We said the things we needed to say but...we always want to say, AND hear more. :(Terry Williamsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938448068751972875.post-9890919478716897412013-04-08T17:26:41.244-04:002013-04-08T17:26:41.244-04:00So moving, what a wonderful thing to look back on....So moving, what a wonderful thing to look back on..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938448068751972875.post-43629858948087908822013-04-08T11:05:34.564-04:002013-04-08T11:05:34.564-04:00This meant the world to me.
