Just... wanted to say that I lost one of my closest and dearest friends the other day. The body was found Saturday 30th August, I received confirmation yesterday on the 31st from his Sister. He died on the 22nd and was alone in his house the entire time. A heart attack at age 37, only an hour after he last messaged me. It doesn't quite feel real. I never replied to his message, it was pretty close-ended, and I thought I'd speak when we next had the time. Besides, he'd proven me wrong, and I didn't want to give him the pleasure of letting him know that - but in a strange way, that's fitting.

A week passed, and I didn't suspect a thing, as not hearing from him for a week was possible. But other people got concerned, they sent a welfare check to his house. The police asked for next of kin. We didn't know his family, so I had to find them. I was pretty certain, but getting it confirmed? I just... I don't get it.

This man, he helped me through some of my worst moments. I would not be the person I am today without him. He was sarcastic, a member of the grammar police, and ever so stoic, and yet, his heart was so loving. He was always there. Always. He was a constant. Other friends came and went and returned, but he was always there.

He'd calm me down with a logical approach, and when I apologised, he would chastise me for being stupid enough to think I needed to be sorry. It would not be a lie that this man saved my life at least once. He became a brother to me... and I'm just so sorry I never showed him how much I loved and appreciated his presence.

To think I will never hear your quips, see your annoyance, experience your deep kindness. I love you my brother. Please rest well in heaven. I will meet you again, ideally in forty years, please do not forget me in your eternal reward, for I will never forget you.

Rest in Peace, James. I will carry your body - and I will carry whatever you wish accomplished. I just need to know what that is.

I'm so sorry for you ! Strenghts to you !!

You're right... I wouldn't care. I wouldn't want them to feel guilt. Thank you Blax. I didn't even think about that. I'm just grieving. I've lost a part of my soul.

You haven’t lost a part of your soul, he’s a part of your soul. This is why it’s painful
Someone becomes a part of your being when you love them. This is why I think that our soul is love, you are what you love
Cry, ask questions, live your emotions and smile while remembering him
I wish you the best 🙏🏼

Thank you for such kind words. They have touched my heart. I'd very much like to think he had become part of my soul. Then I can carry him with me where I go, and all my adventures will give him experiences too. I want to live a fulfilled life that will make him proud. I hope to see him one day at the end of this life and hear him tell me that he saw it all, critique the things I messed up on, and then just let me hug him. I'll forever miss my found brother, but I also hope he doesn't miss me for too long.

Sorry to hear that, bro. I lost a good friend very suddenly back in 2021. I know the feeling. All I can say is that the sadness will eventually go away and the good memories will remain. Hope you are doing well.

As bad as it sounds, it's starting to settle like that already. I feel pretty okay now. Starting to remember the good things about him again. Thanks for your kind message.

I am sorry for your loss. Losing a friend is a hard burden to carry. It was sad to read that he died alone. May James rest in peace.
