What is the most valuable thing you have ever lost?

Everyone who have lost someone I ask that share something about the person(s) if you will. If you think this is distasteful then yell at me, I will respect it all.

Christine, my light in dark areas....if I would have read yours first I would have left things as that...thank you so much.

Thanks Van, for you true caring interest.

Chuck, I believe everything I do is for a reason...these painful responses are a lot more than I have expected...no child should leave before the parent! If their was anything I could do I would lighten your burden but that is out of my control...my words maybe jumbled words but I ask you to speak about the joy they brought you if you can if not don't I fully understand.

Terry, sorry for your lost....and let me tell you one thing you can't leave until I have learned all their is to know....you have a lot of teaching to do!

Good for you Van and you make up for those lost 13 years! And what a wonderful foot it is...don't tell Stephan!

Aaron, I would give all I could to bring back my parents just for one hour to shout at me...never know sometimes those things that seemed so bad, so precious...

Mike, I would probably would of said "my husband" "my mother", but I learned something about love, once you had it, its never lost. I'm greatful for the opportunity for it to touched my life, it kinda make you see things differently, if you know what I mean. Love is the most valuable thing I have. I have not lost,yet.

Lara, sometimes people don't understand the love for dog (puppy) but they one of the greatest loves in the world...they don't care how you look, how smart you are, how many mistakes you make they wag their tails with joy at your presence.

As for you Aunt, I wanted to open a new box to leave my message for her so forgive me...I'm sorry to here but if you have the strength share the great thing about here if you will if not I understand.

Amanda, yeah it must have been really hard for Daddy's little girl....as my parents are gone also I am resolved to the fact that where they are now is a better place. Thank you and Ted for the personal share.

Ted, I know the feeling but I look at as they are in a better place now...still painful though.

A good couple of touching stories, shows Apsense has some real people with real hearts amongst .........(less said is better/sure ya will all agree).........and a good question raised Mike...as per usual, if people read into your articles they will see that ya do care about those that ya work with and ya take the interest to get to know literally all by raising sometimes peculiar questions, I like that.

2 sons, one very early and another in his 40's

We lost a daughter. Actually she is gone from this earth but soon we will be reunited in Heaven.
Nothing is ever truly lost; sometimes it is just not available.
Don't look and study what you have lost, but rather, look and study with what you have left. You will need that substance you have left to get you moving up in life again. (IMHO)

Very well expressed Nisha.........

ok

Without going into details and for a period of around 13 years I never put my foot down and said NO, in these 13 years I lost myself and I can proudly say I am back.

Since I was 10. I was shifted to boarding school. Since that time I am living far from my parents. I meet them in holidays. But today I think I have lost their shouting on me which I remember the most.

I was devastated when i lost my puupy and three days later i lost my aunt :(

My father .... he passed 5 years ago :-(
