Skeleton on the wall...can't quit gazing at it

The next door neighbor gave us a bunch of holiday decorations, most of what we didn’t want…anyways…my brother whom I miss a lot has a birthday on Halloween and so I saw this skeleton on a bone necklace and hung it on my wall opposite from where I face the wall in the living room…I ask it questions like “when am I going to die?” or “man I miss my brother”…or “think of God creating man in the likeness of his image” or " a skeleton is what I am "…and it goes on and on…am I delusional? I can’t stop gazing at it…and I love it.

I think it makes sense. I would do similar things when I first lost my dad. Grief doesn’t always make sense the way other things do. If the skeleton starts responding, then maybe tell your doctor.

thanks @Ninjastar the skeleton hasn’t responded thank God. haha but I wonder why I can’t stop looking at it or take it down…I think of Julie too…she is in ashes now and I wonder about my step dad too while looking at it…to think we go back to dust is a profound thought to me.

I don’t think I’ve ever gotten over the loss of my nana.

I collect leaves, petals, and seed puffs that fly to me when I’m outside and keep them in a jar thinking she sent them.

I also talk to her and my grandad and uncle when I see three stars in the night sky.

And whenever a bat flies overhead, I think that’s nana saying hello.

If it’s not causing a problem, keep at it I say.

@anon84763962 I am so sorry for your loss…that is sweet you do that with the leaves and things…so endearing !! The biggest burden right now on me is the fact that someone I knew took their life…so I think about death a lot.

I’m sorry. I lost a friend to suicide a long time ago. I don’t think we ever come to grips with that.

Here for you buddy xo
