I just got an email from one of my Young Women leaders saying that our Prophet had passed. Sure, anyone who thought he is awesome would burst into tears like I did, but... I just can't believe it. It's so hard to believe. He's the only Prophet I can ever remember leading the Church. I just somehow felt (or more wished) that he'd last here forever.  How do you guys feel about it?

I felt sort of weird, sort of off-kilter. But I said a prayer about it and now I'm okay.
I'm just happy that he's with his wife now. They must have missed each other badly these past few years.

My mother heard the news in an email. I was devastated and burst into tears.
I agree, I've always felt like it was impossible for him to die... why, two general conferences ago (I believe...), he said he was in perfect health. I'm so sad... I feel like the ceiling of my bedroom is about to collapse on top of me.

It really threw me off. I went to bed early, had a headache, moped all day... I know I shouldn't, but... it's just so hard to believe, you know? Today the words of the email would float back through my head and I'd mumble, "Gosh... I can't believe it." sad I somehow thought he'd be here forever.

I got a call from my Dad as we were going to a fireside and no one there knew. So they kept quoting him again and again. I miss him, but he is with his wife now biggrin crying

There's something I realized during my couple of hours of solitude after his funeral. For the past week I've been trying to get it through my skull that he was dead. Now I realize that there was a reason I just couldn't accept that. See, he's not dead. Not really. Physically, sure, he's gone, but spiritually, he'll be around forever, just like I've always thought! This has really helped me with his death. I still miss him and cry about it, but I think it's more because of the fact that I won't be able to hear him give talks and listen to his good humor for a good long while. *sigh* Well, at least we'll be able to see him again, right? Hopefully he won't lose his awesome sense of humor within the next 50 or so earth-years. biggrin
