Mom died five months ago today.
My Mom died suddenly on September 10th, 2014. She had been sick for most of her life, but her passing was fast and unexpected. I've tried to stay positive, to understand that she is in a place where there is no pain, but it's still hard. It still feels really "raw."
I joined Wealthy Affiliate to keep my mind occupied and to try and make money to help pay for a nice memorial for her. I'm not sure if I'll ever make money in this, but it's still been good to keep myself busy.
If you're reading this I just wanted to point out that people come to WA and I'm sure similar places for lots of different reasons. It's not just to become a millionaire. ;) People are here to keep their minds occupied, to realize a dream or fulfill a purpose, or to just get to know new friends.
I haven't been on WA very long but I am always so glad when I see another "follow" or someone visits my new website to make a comment. It is good to remember that in this world people are generally good and helpful, and want the best for one another. You know you've stumbled on a good place when that happens. Best of luck to all of you.

Sorry to hear about your loss Mike, I can't imagine what I'd do without my mom. But I also know I won't have her forever. I'm glad that you find some sort of relief by being here amongst people who really do care about each other, At least most of us do.
I am sorry to hear of your loss. I had a difficult loss once that took months before I could really smile again. I knew that my baby was in Heaven and that one day we will be reunited, but it takes time to heal when there is an empty room in your heart here in this earth. Give yourself time and continue to be thankful that she is no longer in pain and that will help your pain to ease! Though it doesn't mean we don't continue to miss them, but now we can look forward to our reunion!
This doesn't even compare to what you went through, but 6 months ago (almost today - Aug 5 2014) I had to put down two dogs at the same time. Since I don't have kids, they were my kids and it was devastating. I know it is nothing like losing a mother, but I am still upset and sad about it. I think that is actually a good thing since it shows how much I loved them and cared about them. I am so sorry for your loss, and just know that time heals. Although I am still sad, it gets better every day. In some crazy twisted way, I actually get sad that I am not as sad as I was before... It is easy to keep busy here and keep your mind off it and before you know it, a couple of months will pass and you will be making more income and not as sad as you were. May love, happiness, and peace be with you as you remember the best times you had with your mother.
I'm sorry for your lose,life is a big adventure that this day do not have to be the same as the day before.Be blessed
Thank you so much and I noticed your image comes from GodFruits.com my Mom always really liked that website. Be well.
Hey Mike,
My heart goes out to you! I know the feeling, I lost both of my parents when I was in my late 20's they died two years apart 1995 and 1997. Friends and family helped me... And you got that here!!!
Stay strong,

I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine what it must be like...
You are absolutely right about WA. Most people are good and helpful - and it seems like a lot of them has ended up there at WA (a lot of those who also wants to learn about creating a website and earn money from it).
Best of luck to you too!
Hi Michael, my condolence to you. I wish that you would find peace and comfort for yourself. All the best to you here, regards.

You are so right about people joining WA for different reasons and it is nice to know when people come on here to help eachother out, its sometimes nicer then real life. I wish you nothing but the best and hope you find that fulfillment that you are looking for :)
