Yeah, Kai, I'm smiling. I guess "normal" was the wrong word to use here, but I couldn't think of anything better at the time. But I agree with Angel, she's a freak, and so am I, like the rest of us here.
Rue: What you said makes sense, I think.
I think one of the reasons why I haven't cried yet is that I didn't come to my grandmothers place with my parent just a few days after she died. They met up with my uncle and aunt to settle things with the firm of undertakers/morticians, but I didn't want to come. Maybe that is one of the reasons.
But I just know I'm gonna cry at the funeral.

I've never cried, but I think it has something to do with my personal belief. Even though it seems hypocritical. I don't belive in any form of heaven or hell or afterlife of any kind. And I know that would seem like a depressing way of living, but for some reason it gives me comfort knowing that when you die you're dead. Theres no lingering in limbo or retribution in hell or anything...
I'm wierd, I know sweatdrop

Nope, that's totally fine. I grew up with a best friend who believed the same. Don't bring down your own beliefs, stand up for them. 3nodding

Well, the funeral is over, and it went well. As expected, I cried. Not as much as I did at my grandfathers funeral, at least not at first. But when my cousin brought up some memories connected to granny, my tears just fell, and there was no stopping them.
I really don't like funerals. I don't like seeing people cry. But the gods gave us emotions and ways to show them for a reason. I do not think there is anything wrong with crying. As a matter of fact, I believe we cry too little sometimes. But still, it makes me sad to see. That's why I don't like it.
But I'll stop now before I ramble on too much. I don't even know why I wrote this. It just came out. Thanks everyone.

You're welcome, Nari. I'm glad we could help.
I cry at just about anything. It's why I don't give my testimony in church. I get up there, and I break down and sob for no reason.

There was a funeral I missed not too long ago. This week. I feel bad because work is so slow...it's not worth me even being there. I teach. My section was closed for Thursday and Friday and I feel a bit guilty....like I always have something I need to do....because deep down I know I'm missing it. He was my uncle but in reality he was my Grandma's brother.....whatever that makes him to me. A relative. I don't keep a lot of family. Even less that I actually care about. He was a good man. There's a bevy of people who will go. A lot of people will feel the impact including my mother. It's an odd thing, being strong when everyone you knew as a child isn't. Maybe can't be....maybe they shouldn't be right now. Personally I made some peace with it. Oh well, now I look emo and that's not really me. I'm good. I just wish I could do more.
