Happy weekend everyone!
I'm here for the second time. This week's topic is quite sensitive. We all have someone or something to miss. In life, nothing is forever and even the moments that were in a daily time, are left behind and we end up missing them.
When reading about the subject, the image of someone very special to me came to mind, a person who accompanied me at all times, good or bad, and who was willing to give everything for me. A person whose love for me was greater than his own life: my mother.
He passed away 12 years ago and time has not mitigated the feeling of loss that his departure left me. In difficult moments I need her advice and support and in happy moments I need to have her and share it with her. All of us who have lost the love of our mother or the person who cared for us, know that it is unique, true, and unconditional.

I've lost both of mine and miss them too, but they helped me become the man I am and I'm grateful.

We are fortunate to have had good parents. I am also thankful for my parents.
I think the same as you, our parents teach us and prepare us to face life in the best way. Now I know, because when I think of my children, I only want them to be happy, and to know how to live and enjoy life when I am gone. I guess the same thing happened to my parents.
I am also an orphan. My dad died 14 months before my mom. It was pretty tough losing both of them in such a short time. But here I am, following in his footsteps on the right track and trying every day to do my best.
I suppose that "missing" is a selfish desire to want that the good and the beautiful of someone or something will continue with us.
Thank you @galenkp for creating this space to share and make new friends and for motivating us to share our experiences and opinions.
I don't think missing someone is selfish at all - It's just human. We all do it in some way.
Thanks for getting involved again this week, it's good to have you here.
