Losing someone close to you teaches you to be humble about life. The problems of before look so insignificant and ridiculous compared to the pain of living in this world knowing that you will no longer see that person again. It teaches you that time and space are indeed relative, it makes you more compassionate towards others. Money and power can no longer control you. And although life goes on, you will never be the same person again. You are irrevocably and permanently changed. You can move on, but you will never forget. You will never forget how you felt when reality hit you. Losing someone to mental illness and depression makes you question about life, about the mind and about how someone that seems so happy can lose it all. It makes you wonder about human vulnerability and our own inability.
