how long will evil people triumph?

Im just confused. How long will evil people triumph? Why do the good die and the evil people get to live? Why is it that rapists, and cold hearted people live, meanwhile good people, who never did…Continue

I wish I knew why bad things happen to the best of people.

I was thinking, my brother was a very good young man. This is a person that was kind, funny and sensitive. He got a woman pregnant and took responsibility. He was looking for work and wanted to be a…Continue

how do you get over guilt?
2 Replies
Sometimes when a person is in your life, you take them for granted and dont appreciate them as much as you should. Now that they moved on to the next life, it is too little, too late to say I'm…Continue

I like this biblical poem
I dont have much faith in god anymore, but I do like this poem. I thought to myself when I see my brother on the other side, we can recite it to each other. It seems a bit romantic of a poem for a…Continue

Profile Information
- About Me:
- I'm a 22 year old college grad, coping with the loss of my young brother.
- About my Loss:
- My brother was only 17 years old when he was shot to death by some thug in the street for no reason at all. A friend of his made some people upset, and my brother was killed because of it. He was a bright high school student, who was expecting a child. My niece was born recently. Unlike some people twice his age, he actually wanted to be a father and looked forward to taking responsibility for his action. He had perfect attendance and had plenty of friends and teachers that can vouch for him. He was not involved with gangs or drugs. He was a funny, and smart young man. A much more mature person than I ever gave him credit for. He already went through so much pain, and now this. There are so many negative people in the world that are so much deserving of this fate. My brother did absolutely nothing to deserve this. I admit, we didn't always get along perfectly but I never wanted this to happen. Now I will never have the chance to get closer to him, like I looked forward to before he died.

"is griefshare a website like this?"
"Kali
I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
It was not supposed to be like this
In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
Being the Other Woman/Other Man
This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More

shantell,what you are feeling is ok.In a world without justice,and with the myth of"karma",where killers frolic in the sun,while thier countless victims lie in graves and urns,it is totally understandable to dream of killing/torturung the killers.I sometimes daydream of what I would do to the killers of my sis and fiace.It can be verry greusome and eveloping.I just try to limit the time i spend dreaming of chopping/gutting them to death,so that it doesnt destroy my whole day.If this was the old west we could ride off together and avenge their deaths.that would be ~dreamy~they deserve to die.,and nothings wrong with u that u feel this way.
