How to Deal With Loss or Grief of Love Ones

When someone you love has died, is there such thing as moving on? Grief is not easy. It takes time. Grief is not something that we want to avoid feeling either. Grief is part of our journey and human experience. To fight grief is to fight what's natural. Instead, let grief guide you to be a more powerful being.

[@kelleymcfadden9675]

God bless you! Only He can bring you true peace. I'd like to share my best friend's story with you. Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** Tribute to Ethan Lakey kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5nSk5aHj5uEmJo

I miss her so so much. I texted her daily and sent her photos of what I'd been up to. She supported me so much and it made me so happy seeing her being proud of me. We had so many things planned to do. Now I feel just so empty...

[@jacquelinekafieh624]

I feel bad that you lost your mom. Take the time you need to move forward. If you cant concentrate on studying and I dont blame you, then put it off for now. Try to keep busy with other things and maybe grief counselling will help. Your mother is with you and God knows your pain and loss. Ask for strength to move on and forward. Stay strong, you will be fine 💐🌸🌷🌺💖💙💜

Just know that they will always be there with you in spirit. Good luck recovering

[@kiritohu19]

Hold on keep on living and take your time

[@grievingmom]

It really is difficult and a lifelong process. When you are having an "up" time, notice the feeling. When you are having a "down" time, remember what an "up" time felt like and know it will come back. Then feel the pain. Talk to the person you lost out loud. It's ok to feel that pain. They were an amazing component in your life...of course it is horrible they are now not there. Allow yourself that feel and gently tell yourself another "up" will come and ease it for a bit. As time goes on, the "down" will be farther out but will always hit you emotionally. Give yourself a hug and do a self care day when it does happen. Hugs

My wife died almost 2 years ago, right at the beginning of the covid lockdowns. She was the love of my life. I waited 46 years for her and just as I was about to give up and accept that there was no one for me, she came along and fulfilled all my needs. ( a lot of needs I didn't even know I had) And then after 10 years of marriage she was (very) suddenly taken from me. I had a few friends but no family around me then. I'm trying to power through this because that's how I've always dealt with my problems eventually. Now I'm realizing that I can't power through this and I'm scared. Thank you to anyone that has read all this. I'm open to suggestions but I just like the idea that someone heard me. Tim

[@Annetf17]

I am so very sorry for your loss. It sounds like your wife brought you oodles of happiness. Grief is painful and unbearable. It doesn’t ever fully go away. It seems as though you just learn to live with it. I am glad you were able to find a love as beautiful as the one you found with your wife. I can’t offer any suggestions that will cure grief as I feel none will fill the void of a loved one, but here are some that may help increase ones mood or resilience: spending time with my friends and family, self-care, join a support group, get professional help, talk to someone, allow yourself to feel the emotions that come with grief, journal, listen to music, be patient with yourself, or write a letter to your wife. If you need someone to talk to, feel free to reach out to me. I’d be happy to listen. I hope you found the strength to continue powering through this since your post. It is very scary and i can only imagine how this must feel for you. But you’ve shown a lot of strength and resilience these past two years.

[@ren6248]

The sadness of losing your loved ones never really fades away, but just by remembering them for who they were, how nice they were, what they did for you..keeping those memories alive, and remembering them for all of the good they did for you, and others, trust me it helps. I lost my grandpa about 2 years ago. The pain of losing them never went away, but just by focusing on all the good they did, and how they impacted your life and just trying to focus on that. It truly helped me. Grief is probably one of the most painful things you can ever go through, trust me, I know. But just know that it gets better. I pray for everyone going through grief that you never give up, you keep living your life, and you have a blast doing it. I know it'll get hard sometimes but just know that you're not alone, and that plenty of other people are going through exactly what you're going through. God bless everyone reading this, and have a fantastic day. ♥

I'm so sorry I know how it feels to be lonely without the person you love, we've all lost our love ones in death one way or the other, either a spouse, child, family members, or a true friend that meant the world to us, such is life I understand how you feel but life goes on because death is inevitable and we'll all have to face it someday, I lost my oldest son Jesse on may 24th 2020 during lockdown on a car accident, he just turned 22 on his birthday got hit by a drunk truck driver, that was the worst and most lamentable day of my life as a single Dad raising two kid's, my 14yr old daughter is my everything and the reason I keep strong, my late wife passed away 3yrs ago to a cardiovascular disease, I felt deeply devastated with grief, but that's the past now, time is indeed the best healer.

I’m currently 16 and I’m so hurt because I still needed her, I wanted her to watch me get my drivers license, graduate, see me go to college. I just miss her so much, I wish she was still here.

Please, Jesus loves you and wants to give that peace you are longing for. I'd like to share my best friend's story with you. Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** Tribute to Ethan Lakey kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5nSk5aHj5uEmJo

My brother committed suicide last week. I've sat around a lot and just let my mind run wild, knowing that you won't be able to say "hi" or tell then a joke is honestly depressing, I really wish I gave him more of my time. The way I've been able to deal with his loss is honestly just letting myself feel whatever I'm feeling. It hurts yeah, but I know I'll be alright and that it'll all be okay in the end. Knowing I don't have to stand strong and being able to go and talk to my friends or family makes me feel a lot better. I do hope anyone else feeling this way will be able to get to the other side of this dark road and remeber that everything'll be okay.

My dog passed away last night. She was having a hard time breathing and we had to have her put to sleep. She was a beautiful German Shepherd and was with us for almost 12 years. She didn’t make it to her birthday, but it was her time to go. I’m so glad we could be with her for so long.

@Julian Anthony everyone is going to leave you one day. Either you die or they die. That's the universal truth. Do you think that should stop you from loving some because you will lose them one day which is inevitable? Is a life with no love for anyone worth it? No offense, I really want to know so I asked.

@@hyungwonieee4795 Jesus loves you and wants to give that peace you are longing for. I'd like to share my best friend's story with you. Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** Tribute to Ethan Lakey kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5nSk5aHj5uEmJo

I'm coming up on 7yrs since I lost my oldest daughter Marissa. After her passing I spent 18 months in bed, I couldn't function. I have been through LOTS of therapy and still am and it has helped, but I have moments like now where I'll have flashes of memories or feelings of her and it's the most painful thing I've ever felt. I'm unbelievably grateful for the 9 and a half years with her, but of course I want her back. I've never felt such intense pain and sadness. I'm only here on this earth still, cuz I have another daughter that needs me. The hardest thing to do is hold on when you're entire being is telling how easy it would be to just let go. Thankfully these days are fewer and further between. I guess my outlet right now is commenting on this video, which I appreciate and had good examples and ideas of things to do. So thank you to the creators. I would also like to say to anyone that is reading this and who has watched this video my heart goes out you and yours. Love, Micheal 💚

Last month my wife and I lost our only child. She was 22 years old. Her name is Marisa, (one "s"). I share your grief. I will pray for you. There are no words to express the confusion and pain that we feel. My only and most genuine hope and source of consolation is my faith in Jesus Christ. I have no idea what you may believe, but in this time of tragedy know that God IS in control and is calling you to come to Him. His ways are greater than ours. If you are not a believer I am not trying to sound cliche, nor trite. If you are a Christian then you know that God does love you, He knows the end from the beginning and He has a plan. As confusing as your loss may be, realize that you and Marissa are a part of this plan. Trust Him. All of this is not to say that the pain and tears are not real, they most certainly are. But they don't have to be without hope. From one grieving parent to another, I will pray for you.

I lost my 5 month old baby girl just this Sept 2021. She has a congenital heart disease. I am praying so hard everyday for a miraculous healing. I am so positive that God will grant the healing of her heart i always though that she will grow just like other kids. Losing her is soo painful still cant accept it.. Got no chance to hug her tight and say to her ears how much Mama love her soo much for the very last time. I was so sick and afraid it was covid so i cant go near her but hen she got sick too so we decided to bring her to hospital. I though she's getting well my husband told me her temperature is okay, she dont have cough and oxygen level is okay then my husband told me one morning her oxygen level drops. She died in the hospital while im sick at home. Several days passed before baby returned home and she was already in an urn. The agony of waiting her and seeing her in an urn is so devastating. The thought of I shouĺd have done this and that is killing me .. so much guilt so much regret but whatever I do I cant bring her back. I know I have to accept it but it's so hard dont know where to start i.just want to think she's still here with us. I hope i could make through this.. I just want to be reunited with my daughter but I also have other kids who still need their mama. I dont know what to do.

It's still there and I know Jesus will give me the strength to keep moving. So again thank you for your prayers. It means the world to me. As for your loss, I am unbelievably sorry. As you know as a grieving parent, you know there are no words to say. There's no understanding, life becomes confusing. I just hope that you and your wife live for each other and live through the spirit of your daughter that will never leave you. I hate saying this, but if anything "good" came out of losing my Marissa is she taught me and left to me a beautiful gift of empathy and compassion. I feel your Marisa did the same for you. Hold on to that. I know you guys will. We don't know each other, but we have a bond that most people don't know and I hope never have to know. If you ever need to talk you can message me anytime. Thank you for your prayers. I will be doing the same for you and your family. Sincerely, Micheal Velasquez 💚

@@aimeesoriano9949 Hello, my heart aches for you and your family. I know there is no words. Sometimes saying nothing and just letting you know that someone knows how you're feeling, knows the pain and for you to know you are never alone. Be it through your God or other people like you that have experienced what you have. I'm sorry you were not able to be there with her, I cannot imagine what that must feel like. Please try your best to not blame yourself or play the "should've, would've, could've game." It will only drive you mad. I did the same thing to myself for years (still do at times) for our decision to remove the support that was keeping her alive. It was soul crushing to do that to myself. You just have to remember that you loved and cherished her. That's the gift we parents are able to give to them. I know you love her and always will and that's what matters. We unfortunately have no control like we think we do. It takes times like this to teach us that unfortunate fact. The only advice I can give you is live for her, live for your other children, live for your husband and of course live for yourself. We owe it to our children that have left us to do that for them. I wish I had words to make your pain go away, but unfortunately I don't. All I can say is you are not alone. If you ever need to talk, please feel free to message me anytime. I will send my love, thoughts and prayers to you and your family. Sincerely, Micheal Velasquez 💚

I lost my son over 16 months ago. I pretty much been dealing with the grieving process by myself. Sure i have went to group. They weren't grief group gathering. And i have done counciling over the phone due to the pandemic. But that didn't help. I quit talking about my sons death while at group. It seems to make people distant themselves from me. I don't have any comfort at home either. So trying to get out of this numb feeling is practically a no win situation right now. I pray that one day God will heal me in some way some day. Any one out there have the same or any suggestions?

I just lost my mom on Monday and it is the hardest thing for me to deal with. She was 78 years old and had lived with me for as long as I could remember. People kept telling me that it will get better but I feel like it will not. My mom was everything to me. I miss her laughing out loud at my jokes. I miss asking her, what you want for breakfast. Lunch and dinner. I don't sleep well anymore. I kept getting up to check her room like she's still there. I cried alot, I can't eat or sleep. I don't care about anything anymore. This is the most hardest thing I ever had to deal with and I have been through alot of tough times in my life. She always told me to live my life when she is gone and not to worry. My is changed forever and I will never be the same person again.

[@kelleymcfadden9675]

Jesus loves you and only he can give you true peace and a life worth living. I'd like to share my best friend's story with you. Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** Tribute to Ethan Lakey kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5nSk5aHj5uEmJo

He deserved so, so much better than me. I think I'm better now, I can watch his videos without crying, but it still leaves me sad, and yet happy. What is this? I dont know. And honestly, I'm glad he was in my life. He wasnt just a pet. He was my only best friend. Someone I thought wouldnt betray me or leave me. But I'm not mad at him for leaving me. It was for his good, he would live a very hard life if he recovered anyway, but still, I wish he survived. I dont know anymore.

When we arrived at my grandparents house after the news, i saw my grandma, crying hystericly while holding him. I had noticed that he had one last tear in his eye. After I said my final goodbyes, I cried in my moms arms the most I have ever cried. I have all of these mixed emotions in me right now including anger, depression, and some suicidal thoughts.

For the past few months we almost didn't talk at all but he died in an accident five days ago. This is my first experience with death so it was fairly new to me. At first it was denial and shock, cried in the evening the past three days. Actually noted my feelings, drew a meaningful portrait of them, thought of them almost constantly. I went to church today and lit up a candle, thought of them once again. Still grieving, stomach issues, zero motivation and problems with sleeping.

In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** Tribute to Ethan Lakey kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5nSk5aHj5uEmJo

Sometimes we unintentionally protect ourselves by repressing our emotions. In due time you’ll be able to “deal” with it and allow those emotions to be there too. You’ll learn how to give it a place within your new life. Which might not make it hurt any less but it will become easier to recover yourself whenever you feel lost. I hope you’ll be able to recover. I wish you the best! Keep your memories alive and remember, there is always someone who loves you!

Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** Tribute to Ethan Lakey kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5nSk5aHj5uEmJo

Grieving is because we loved that person who has gone and some how has taken part inside us, so when we grieve, we must think that the other one still love you, and you cry because you love. And thinking in other way, there is a beautiful story that says: when someone has gone of this world, it will become a star in the night, and someday it will be born in a star and take birth again in the Earth! So their life is always alive, when you feel them believe that they aren't far of you. The bound between lifes is something eternal, that is why it is so strong, strong enought to make you grieve. But think in other way, if the bound is eternal, life is alive.

[@pavayeesocrates9420]

Thank you for this. It means a lot to all of us who are grieving because its hard to find hope. These are the words that I've been hoping someone would say, that we are more connected than we realize.

I lost my grandmother a few months ago, and just now realized how much I truly loved her, and went into the grieving process a bit late. The worst part was I was kind of being rude to her the last time I saw her and it made me want to die. I couldn’t go to the hospital and see her because i’m underaged. So i could never right the wrongs I did. I broke down a few minutes ago because of this and now i’m trying to get over it and collect myself.

[@xdlolfam2713]

Lost my cat a few months ago. Only had him for a year and he was only three years old when he was taken away from me. We were really close and I can sometimes hear his meows and purrs in my head, and I rarely see him in dreams. Most days I'm angry and in denial that he's gone, but I can be extremely depressed in some. He really liked to explore the outdoors, so I would take peaceful walks across my neighborhood from time to time. However, it is refreshing to know that I am, unfortunately, not the only person experiencing this situation. God bless you all and I hope you find your peace and happiness. I love you so much, Ellie. May you rest in peace.

My dad passed away two months ago. I’ve been acting fine on the outside and being normal because I feel like it’s my duty to be strong for my mom. I cry myself to sleep almost every night but no one knows. I don’t want to burden anyone with my feeling or maybe I unconsciously just don’t want to talk about it. I’ve always been a cheery and outgoing person and I still am like that on the outside. But on the inside it hurts so much. It hurts so so much. I’m only thirteen and I feel like I have so much weight on my shoulders. My dad passed away four days before my birthday and not having him there just tore me apart. But I of course kept a strong face for my mom and pretended everything was fine. Thank you for the advice I’m considering keeping a journal

I am so sorry for your loss 💔 you are so young and it is an extremely difficult loss to deal with at any age, but being so young I think you are harbouring all your feelings inside to be strong for your mom, which is noble, but may end up hurting you in the long run. Please don't feel the need to bottle your emotions up, talk to your mom about how you're feeling and try to remember the good moments as difficult as that may be right now. Please open up and talk to someone, even if it's a friend, it does help. I hope you find peace eventually 💙

[@yaoihottielime]

This video helped me to understand that feeling grief is just part of being human, my cat had unexpectedly passed away in an accident and it was a total shock. I haven't been able to get out of bed to do anything but eat, brush teeth... My family keeps pushing me to get over it and try to make a point that it was just an animal not a human. It's hard when everything around you reminds you of them, no more hearing his little meows, no more hearing him run up and down the stairs... no more cuddling with him at night. Looking at his cat tree I can't help but sometime see if he's there. It's hard to not know what to feel or how to feel especially as an adult since being older should make you more experienced and know what to do during these tough times to be able to continue on with life. That's why I have been searching youtube to help me over come all this grief that I was feeling only to realize it's going to take a lot of time and to accept it's okay to feel this way.

I understand what each of you is going through I lost my husband,my brother, my brother in law whom I was very close too and now my most wonderful grieving buddy my cat who was here with me through all those times and all this a little over one year I’ve shed enough tears to last a lifetime I also wonder what our purpose is to be here to have to feel so lost and alone .it’s so,so hard ..

[@geoleo965]

My family and I suffered a great loss just around a couple of weeks ago... Wish it was this easy, but other than a simple guide here, in the end it is up to one to decide how and when to move on... If only I could have someone to speak with openly and in person.

[@geoleo965]

@WhyAmIHere It is difficult and surreal, and I rather not bring it up to those who are suffering the most; reviving or increasing the already existing pain, anguish & sorrow, and those who I pray won't be affected by this loss in the future, as we know how cruel and prejudiced people can be. All this and more were the reasons why I mentioned before about yearning to talk with someone trustworthy and face to face; it's just too much to handle and frightening for me... And silly enough, to cope with this whole situation, I've been using KZbin as a source of escapism by reading the silly and comical comments written by others on the vids, as I do the same just to cheer up a bit and in hopes to read their reaction... I guess as both, a compensation and a form to socialize.

[@CarolMarchiori]

Geo Leo lots of universities have programs to have you talk to a professional for free, I would recommend you to check. This thing about how and when it’s a lie, you can pretend to make others happy, but you must also stay true to yourself and accept when and how YOU can move on.

[@geoleo965]

@@CarolMarchiori Hardly where I live, but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try and check it out; funny enough, I don't trust enough psychology since, in the end, is paying tons of cash by simply having someone to listen to one's personal problems and give from typical to random advices to try to move on... So, basically, as a friend would do... But for free, heh. Greatly appreciated, this cheared me up a bit.

[@CarolMarchiori]

Geo Leo I have the same resistant to psychology, but I came to terms when I found the right person. I guess it’s because this person only guides me to reflect on myself and find the responses by myself instead of acting as a friend and give advice. I hope 🤞 you find the right person to your needs to. I will have you in my prayers. 😘

[@Adriana.Gabriela]

@@geoleo965 it's (mostly) far away from that. Yes, some (well, a lot, perhaps) psychologist and psychoterapists are bad or even terrible, which may be dangerous in some cases, but there are good ones too, you just need to put a bit of an effort to find them (usually by the word of mouth), and they (the good ones) don't give you random advice, but talk you through introspecting and having more understanding of and towards yourself and others. And psychology in general is very important and good, and should be given more attention in everyday life, starting from schools, but a lot of people misuse it. Don't hesitate to ask for help, and don't get discouraged when you see a lot of bad reviews (it can be scary seeing that when you want/need help, but also don't go to people with bad reviews). Don't give up on help and try to find someone who knows what they are doing. And good luck ✨

I just lost my fiance, the love of my life. I've been with many women but she was different and the connection we shared was a rare one. We fought through drug abuse and addiction but our love for one another was always there. Love is hard and we had some rough times, but at the same time that love and connection we shared was and is something amazing!! No one and nothing made happier than every night for 5 years falling asleep and waking up with her in my arms. It was her and I against the world and as long as we had one another the emotions I felt because of her were so amazing I have yet to find a word suitable enough or close enough to describe what we felt for each other. She was in a car accident and unfortunately she ended up with her brain activity ceasing to exist and a decision was made to take her off life support. The pain i am currently going through is so horrible that I'm lost ....I love you Casey Nicole always and forever...

Jesus loves you! I'd like to share my best friend's story with you. Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence.
