inkdick: june 21 2009 an angry guilt
They say anger is one of the stages of loss. I sort of had an anger stage the day I learned of his death, but it lasted all of two minutes. I haven’t had a REAL anger stage yet, and I’m feeling a little guilty about it. What if I never feel angry about this?
Emotions are tricky things.

I’ve felt guilty that I haven’t cried about it :(

Last I heard, they’re saying now that not everyone goes through all the stages, and rarely in the “proper” order. Maybe you won’t get angry until years from now, or maybe you just won’t ever get angry about this, and that doesn’t mean you didn’t feel real loss or sadness. It just means you dealt with it in a different way.

My grandmother passed away last month, and I was never hit with the anger stage. Sometimes these things just happen. I know he was much to young to have already passed on, and I know that you looked up to him, and he was an inpiration to many, many people. But honestly, there is nobody you could be angry at. It was an accident, maybe anger at the situation, but still… don’t feel guilty about being angry, just remember the good times, and the amazing things that he taught you. Thats what he would’ve wanted. :)

It’s probably just hard to be mad. I’m sure he was just living his life like you’d expect him to.
