Artie will always be nearby. Your love will keep you connected for eternity. "death cannot take that which never dies".
Time will help, not to ever get over losing Artie, but to learn how to exist without him. One day, I promise, you will feel what he is trying to tell you, to find joy once more in living, to maybe foster those sweet little ones because they need someone like you with a big heart. Who was taught to love and was left a beautiful legacy.
His play balls are there trying to remind you to find simple pleasures again, that he is there and he will help you. Distract your grieving heart and allow the healing to take place.
I know at first I felt guilty for being alive when my precious one was not, for laughing, for finding pleasure in anything. But they loved life and us so much they only want the best for our lives now. Just as we would want for them if we were the first to go, not to be sad for the rest of our lives.
Look at those little ones you are seeing that are so deeply affected by losing their families and all they are familiar with, you want to help, to make them feel love and happiness once more, to make life worth living. Why? They are grieving right now the same as you. You know how they feel, you want to help. AND YOU CAN. You can help each other heal........and Artie will help.....
