Yeah, it's something I've lived with for over 32 years... death also affects you psychologically. With me, I'm so scared to get close to people, especially in a relationship. I'm always afraid, deep down, that they're going to die or leave me if I get too close.
I always rememember that when Jesus heard about the death of Lazarus, he cried. THAT really touches me. Here, the man who had the power to resurrect (which he did) CRIED when he heard of his friend's death. It shows we can still mourn... nothing wrong with it...
