@@billyc768 So sorry for your recent loss. Hang in there and take one day at a time. Stay patient with yourself and your personal grieving process. If it might help to hear some encouragement, then read below. It's about the grief journey I started in 2016.
The deepest sorrow of losing a parent abates slowly over months, then years. You will eventually be able to live a new reality missing him suddenly at times and also happily appreciating his impact on your life. The second year won't be as painful as the first months, so take courage that it gets easier in time.
Work your grief out your own unique way. You will know when you get there which methods you want to take. Try not to hurt others, but also do not ask their permission to go through grief the way you need to. Grief is your own private work. Remember to lean on those who love you once in a while. Get out and forget sometimes too - you will occasionally need those breaks.
Your life will be both less and more, as in time you will change in some good ways. Your legitimate suffering will eventually cause you to grow stronger, like endurance training. For example you will reassess what's most important and understand others better.
In the next few years, you will grow to realize your new place in the world. Be good to you and patient with you now as you endure the pain of initial drowning grief, shock, and paradigm shift that begins this long journey. I hope you are a little encouraged that it will get easier to carry with time. May God be with you, strengthen you, and comfort you.

Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know youāre not alone
Cause Iām going to make this place your home
Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know youāre not alone
Cause Iām going to make this place your home
Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know youāre not alone
Cause Iām going to make this place your home

@Laurie2507
I loved this song when i was younger. It helped me build my childhood. Then i completely forgot about the older i got. Then i started humming it in my head and then realised that this was my favourite song and then i tried looking for it and found it. Yay.
@minnie310
Iām leaving this here because I want it to be somewhere. My parents were divorced. And the last weekend I spent at my dadās house before he died, he was practicing singing this song and playing it on the keyboard. I feel like this was his advice for how to do life without him. Heās alive in this song.
@busman5693
So sorry for your loss Minnie. Death is unnatural for humans and so when it happens we are perplexed and we grieve. The Bible holds out the happiest future for us all. Prayer gives comfort and strength. Be well.š»š
@brooklynlass2196
My condolences to you and your family as you grieve.
Just know this, he is always in your heart. And, remember the line from the song, "I am going to make this place my home". That "place" for your father now is Heaven. He's there with God and always at "a place in your heart".
May God be with you and keep you.
@-0m3rcy0-8
Stay strong, Friend! I wish you the best, your father lives on not just in this song but in your memory.
I hope you find the same joy in this song as he probably did, maybe you might find a sort of peace in that. ā¤ļøš
