Cole_2.5_DQ

The nature of the absence determines the type of behavior I take in recognizing the value of it. For someone who is simply an hour or two away, I frequently communicate with them through texting or Facebook. For friends in other states or countries, I notice I keep in touch even better than those close enough to meet in person. I message or skype with many of them several times a week. For those that are dead, I commemorate them with a tattoo and monthly visits to their cemetery (assuming they were buried). I do not normally bring my own feelings regarding the absences of others into my actions; I do not believe that a correlation between personal and public feelings is necessary. Do you believe relationships are considered finished once someone dies, or is it eternally unfinished because your life and perspectives will be continuously shaped?

Wow Cole, I believe I can learn a lot from you, because I have had a hard time trying to put aside my feelings from my daily activities. I do not think of myself as a spoiled brat, that gets his emotions easily moved, but I do have a hard time putting my personal problems aside from what I have to do in a specific day.
