Came across this today -
Goodbyes are not forever,
Goodbyes are not the end,
They simply mean I’ll miss you until we meet again.

When I lost my mum I regretted never saying goodbye to her as I wasn’t with my mum the day she left me and back then saying goodbye I never thought it meant I’ll see her again. But I know it so well now
My nephew is only 10 years old, and he came over on the thursday before my mum (his nan) passed away, he was very close to her and he didn’t want to go and say bye to her, and he regrets never saying goodbye,giving her a hug and a kiss and he is struggling more than ever to come to terms with the loss, but we have told him she lives on in his heart,as does your mum too, she might be out of your sight but if you look hard enough or even say mum i miss you, she will find a way of letting you know that she is around. Keep your mum’s memory alive by talking about her often, remember all the good times you had with your mum. it may sound silly but this was how i got over my dads death, i always thought that i was a daddies girl but i am missing my mum so much more and finding each day harder and harder to go on. I live each day for my 2 dogs now, I have fibromyalgia so everyday is hard for me as i am in pain so much and so often, but i get up and do what i need to do, i ring my brother and we reminisce about the past and things we did or did to mum, you might feel like it hurts to talk about her but that is a great way to grieve.

I have never said goodbye at anyone’s funeral because i believe it’s not good bye it’s see you later, however i do always say sweet dreams because i don’t like the phrase Rest In Peace.

No there isn’t life after death in the terms of heaven and hell. The only one I believe in is our loved ones are taken by extra terrestrials to another planet our loved ones are looking at us through a puddle in water. This is what my grief has taught me.

Everybody has their own beliefs, but as a child i was always told look up to the sky and the brightest star is your loved one entering the gates of heaven. If you saw the star for more than 2 nights then your loved one was not ready to leave you yet… However as i have grown up i have always believed that i will see my loved ones again some day. To some people this is a comfort.

I’d like to believe that my mum has gone to heaven but no one has come back to prove this and if there is a heaven then it would stand up to reason there is a god and if there is a god then he or she wouldn’t of let ny mum would suffer and lay nf mum live
So I’m sorry I respect your belief but I do not believe In a heaven.
thank you, i also can see your point on things, because watching my mum in so much pain and suffering knowing there was nothing i could do to help her but stand and hold her hand, it was the worst thing ever standing and watching my mum pass away before me, i kept praying that it would all be over quickly.
However i believe that a visiting robin or a white feather falling or a butterfly, is a loved one letting you know that they are close by and with you.

There you go it just goes to proof the believe that there is a heaven is false. I am a proud atheist even more since I lost my mum. My mum would still be alive if there was some omnipotent god
