I miss my grandmother who died some time ago, luckily I have some photos so I don't forget those memories. I purposely put it in the favorites menu so I can stare at the photo any time. how about you ? What do you do if you miss someone who has passed away?

I miss lots of people who passed away. I guess looking at photographs help. Not much can be done anyway. Back then I didn't even have the tools to record a video. If not, it would've been nice.

the more documentation of memories, the happier we will be able to remember them

I don't dare looking at my grandma picture. It makes me feel guilty. I didn't take care of her enough.

sometimes there is a sense of guilt too, hopefully we can help by sending prayers for them

busyness can make us learn to forget them

Missing someone is the hardest part . Specially if that person passed away already. I would look at pictures , remember some conversations and will offer a prayer in silence. That's what I'm doing.

Hey, Remembering someone whose passed away always provide us with a mix of emotions. They either motivate us to make better decisions in life or send us deep into a depression which might ruin our lives. For me, most of the time it is the first case. Their memories always have a positive impact on the way I live my life. They guide me through difficult choices. I indulge myself into going through their items, dairies, notes, photos or some video clip of theirs. Though initially it makes me miss them more but with time this always have a positive impact on my mind.

I keep a picture of them to remind me of them. You always have your memories.

the most beautiful thing that we keep for them is a memory in the heart
