Things you wish you'd realized sooner.

The one good thing that comes as a result of death is the increasing value of life.

Losing a friend is difficult, a dark cloud seems to loom over all our heads - and in the presence of friends, family, and other loved ones... things fall apart.

Losing one friend is painful, but it makes you remember all of the great things that person has given to you in their life.

What losing a friend should do, most importantly, is make you more grateful for the friends that are still with you. Friendship is bigger than one or two disputes, stronger than a few hateful words said in anger, greater than the planets that circle the sun.

Many people have said that friends come and go, and if that is the case, you should make sure every step along that road is a good one.

If anything, death brings us closer together in life. Losing someone dear to you should not influence how close you become with others. You should always make a conscious effort to be close to those you care about before you lose them.
