I personally find it disrespectful when people try to ignore such a highly emotional and upsetting subject especially if they knew the person too. I think the fact that you were upset and moved by the news speaks volumes about the person who died - as you say if you feel like this then his close friends and family will be devestated. <br />Take comfort in the fact that you have stopped and thought about him today, remarked what a nice person he was and spared some time to send thoughts (and prayers?) to the family.<br />Things like this make me reassess my life as you never know what life will deal you and you should always be living it to the full!<br />Best wishes<br />Staceystayathomemummyhttp://www.stayathomemummy.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942522681264332044.post-43583958130212709782011-02-11T15:29:19.610+00:002011-02-11T15:29:19.610+00:00Thank you for sharing your feelings so honestly; I...Thank you for sharing your feelings so honestly; I'm not sure I'd want to admit to the swear words. Irish folk are generally lovely, Southern Irish especially. My son-in-law hails from Cork and has many family scattered around the city, so perhaps he knew someone on that plane too.<br />Every tragedy we hear about is boring for some people but suddenly disastrous if we are personally affected.<br />I hope I never become too blasé to care about the friends and family who are left to grieve after such headlines.<br />Many Blessings.Albedohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04093271297403073329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942522681264332044.post-47142836704766207812011-02-11T04:05:49.073+00:002011-02-11T04:05:49.073+00:00I think it is always weird when some one you sort-...I think it is always weird when some one you sort-of know dies. I mean, sometimes it feels like you aren't even allowed to grieve for them because you were that close but I think that is totally wrong. Of course you are going to feel sad and upset and I think it is too bad that people at your work don't deal with things they way you want to but I guess that is the cultural difference you have to deal with.<br /><br />(I hope this comment makes sense.
