To The Family Member I Wish I Had More Time With

Losing a family member is heartbreaking no matter how much time you get with them.

To The Family Member I Wish I Had More Time With
Michelle Hamilton

I know everyone is going to die at some point, but why did you have to go so soon? Nothing bothers me more than wondering how different my life would be if my loved ones who have passed were still here today. Would my family still be the same? I'd like to think we'd be better, stronger and happier if you were still here. But the most intriguing question is would I be the same? I don't think I would be, because I'd like to believe having more time with you would have made me smarter, kinder, happier and more family orientated.

It's sad that I didn't get to know you very well before you had to go. I think about you often and wonder if you would be proud of me. I wish you could have seen everything I have accomplished since you left. I wish you could've met my friends and boyfriend, I think you would love them almost as much as I do. I know you're watching over me in everything I do, and you're always present in spirit in all of the big days of all of our lives.

I hear stories about you often and know for a fact we would get along great. You seemed like such an amazing, strong, and loving person who made a huge impact in so many people's lives. I see how everyone's eyes light up when talking about you even though they're still all hurting that you're gone. This really shows me the influence you had on everyone's life you came into contact with. It makes me proud to say that you're my family when people ask about you.

I'd give anything for one conversation with you, just to talk for one last time, and I'm sure the rest of our family feels the same. Hearing stories sometimes just isn't enough for me, I want to interact with you for myself. It makes me sad that this isn't possible, but i know that you will always be with me, watching over me and making sure i am safe and for that i am forever grateful.

You made a huge impact on the small parts of my life you did get to be a part of, and i am very thankful for the short time we had together. You shaped our family and made us all better people showing us all that anything is possible if you're willing to work hard to achieve it.

In loving memory of Antonio V Cicciarelli and Lynn Hamilton I love you forever and always rest in peace.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
