I know this pain all too well and I know exactly how you feel. It is extremely difficult to put on a brave face when dealing with the handling the death of someone so close to yourself. Having to go through all of his belongings, deciding what to do with what, is not a task I would not wish on anyone. It is painful and seems to take forever. However, there are a lot of good memories in those belongings and it is those memories that are a person's immortality. So long as you remember him, he will live forever in your heart and soul.
We all need that little spark, that candle in the darkness to keep hope alive. As I had said, you are not alone. If you feel the need to talk. Just reach out.
One step at a time is all you can do. It has been seven years since my father passed away and we still have not moved all of his belongings anywhere. It's just too painful to do so. I and so many others know your pain all too well. Hang in there.
I've come to the conclusion that I'm in a hole. Not just any hole but a good deep one. The funny thing is that this year has thrown so much at me that it feels like others are trying to berry me. Yet, each shovel full of grief ends up being a little bit more of fill to the hole as I shift to keep from getting hit i end up climbing up the fill and together we end filling in this hole and possibly me walking out on top.
