I lost my Dad, unexpectedly, just 18 days ago. I am on vacation now after the sad, grieving immediate reaction that was so strong and powerful for me.
A friend sent me a link to a TED talk by Neil Pasricha and I want to thank you , Mike, for sending it to me. And I want to thank Neil, who I don't of course know, for his talk, especially the attitude piece.
We all have to move on, and we do have choices. Sometimes things do seem incredibly tough, but sharing helps and so does listening to inspiring people - if enough time has gone by and you feel almost ready to raise your head above the parapet again.
I need to move on in my life - I want to take my best memories of my Dad on with me - and there are inspiring things to listen to and read out there that make the impossibility of it just a little harder to bear.
