"It's the neverness that is so painful." How true.
"Never again to be here with us -- never to sit with us at the table, never to travel with us, never to laugh with us, never to cry with us..."
There is no pain that I have experienced like death. Other pain is painful. I might even choose death over something else, if it weren't for the pain of the "neverness".
It goes on and on. There is nothing you can do to bring someone back. There is no hope of ever seeing or talking to them again on this earth. You are completely helpless. It is so final.
"Only our death can stop the pain of his death. A month, a year, five years -- with that I could live. But not this forever."
It is true that this is not the forever and we will be together in Heaven which is the true forever, but the pain, the longing continues.
