Do you still think about your loved ones that passed away? How did you move on?

My grandmother died almost 3 years ago and it hurt a lot when she died. She was with me all my life and she lives with us. The hardest part was that she was still strong at 83 years old and she died because of an accident. I kept thinking that if only this or that maybe she would stil be with us. Anyways, I know that I've moved on but it's just that whenever I'm alone I sometimes think of her and wish that she was still here. Just last week I've dreamt of her and miss her terribly.
I've moved on by thinking that she just moved to the province, but every time we visit her grave, I still cry. Is this normal?

I guess the bond between you and your grandma was very strong. From your discussion, it seems that you are still 'blaming' the accident for the loss. Personally, I think we should accept that one will die eventually. It is only a matter of time.
As for whether it is normal to cry at graves, I would think so. It is a form of self expression, especially when you feel sad on the loss. It will go away with time.
Afterall, you have already moveed on, haven't you?

It is very normal to continue grieving for loved ones. I know that I still do. As the time of their passing grows more distant, I try to remember the good & happy things about their lives and our relationships, so that I can remember them with fondness and not have to just cry at the thought of their being gone.
Good luck to you.
