Recovery I now have realised that i will never fully recover. There are two periods in my life as far as my purple heart : The one where he was still here, and the other in which he is gone. My purple puzzle fell off the wall, i now have to piece it together. And when i`m done with that, i`ll feel better, for sure - yet : i will NEVER fully recover from the loss.
to everyone who reads this : i have a purple heart for you.
lots of love, tony Love...thy will b done | |

Pick up the pieces slowly...every day is different. We will always love Prince, but he would want us to focus on living | |

i came to the realization yesterday that i am not going to "get past" this. i have wasted too many hours trying to get past stuff. i will cry about it, get mad about it, but i will not fight the grief anymore. i will absorb, even embrace, it. it is going to become part of me and who i become. its a relief for me to accept this. it means that a person has had such an effect on me that in life, and in death, they have changed me forever. will i eventually have happy moments in life? i expect i will have some, as hard as it is to imagine now. but i will not be the same person. i will never be "over" prince or his death. this is a scar i will wear with pride and love. "do i have a friend tonight?" --prince at his last concert in atlanta "If u love somebody, your life won't be in vain
And there's always a rainbow, at the end of every rain."--peace and love, dear prince..... | |

The only way to recover is to celebrate what is still very much alive : his legacy, his music, his artistry, his influence.
Personally, I'm planning to switch to more uptempo songs now that I listened to the haunting slow jams so much. I'll squeeze a slow one here and there just lhe did on most of his records.
Somewhere in my playlist, there will be U Gotta Shake Something. | |

“The best thing you can say to someone going through a tragic loss is not that
If a man is considered guilty
For what goes on in his mind Then give me the electric chair For all my future crimes" | |
