Waiting...for someone to come to this thread to claim they had a "near death experience" to prove life after death.
I used to say that we "live on" in the memories of the people who loved us, but seriously after six months of depression and deep mourning of my beloved dog, and actually talking to the picture of her stuck on the fridge, I've recovered and now she's not "living on" in my memory. She is just a happy memory and I'm ready to move on with my life now. "Love" needs to be fed. If you're not feeding it with constant contact and interaction, the feeling of love eventually dies and becomes merely a memory. A happy one sometimes, but a memory nevertheless. You actually do stop crying every time you think of the happy times.
