I have been crying, too.
And it kind of reminds me how when someone gives a compliment or says a heartfelt thank you, it's kind of for the benefit of the person giving that compliment and saying that thank you. The person receiving it may or may not need that, but the person giving it benefits by giving it.
At least that's what's coming up for me today. I am honored and moved by Gnostic's own words, where she has said things like ...
"Please keep your prayers and concerns for yourselves as mine have reached their conclusion and I’ll require no further concern soon. I will pray constantly for all of you."
... and ...
"It is all joy beloved. It is finished!"
But I still cry. I think it may be good for me to cry ... *smile* ... whether our dear Velina Gnostic wants me to or not!
(((( everybody ))))

Of course I am here also, to express my deepest sympathies for Gnostic, as I too was quite overcome when I received the news.
However I do very much agree with Pangel, that we really should try to keep ourselves happy. I am not used to it though. I may be smiling, but I am down, and I feel as though in some way I am being dishonest.
So my advice is to try to BE happy, rather than look happy. But that just seems wrong. Maybe it is better to just feel how you feel, and allow it to show. It's easier for me to deal that way.
At least I have been able to accept it. When I learned on Thursday night, my first reaction was to cry. I was already pretty down that night because of a umm... problem.. on Answers.

Rae, you're one heck of a sweet woman for caring about Gnostic so deeply. Knowing her myself, I am sure that she's anticipating it with JOY. She's gong to meet Goddess and God and get to spend some quality time with them. She's ALSO gettng to meet with ALL her loved ones that have passed before her and I expect she is ALREADY planning out the wonderful visits with each, in turn. Myself, I am HAPPY for her, now that her lessons in THIS lifetime are almost completed, she is ready to graduate and move on to her NEXT great adventure. I send her off with MUCH love and sincere appreciation for ALL that she has taught me and those I care about who will remain behind, until we ALL meet in Summerland.
Yes, I mourn for her impending loss from my life, here and now, but that mournng is a selfish thing and my BEST act of love for her would be to celebrate her life and be joyful that she has made a successful transition to her next great lesson.
Gnostic, Dear Friend, congratulations on a job well done. REst a while, enjoy the company of the spirit world. Seek your next great adventure, plan well for it. We have NOT seen the last of you on the Earth and I look forward to your return.
(((((((Gnostic)))))))
(((((((Rae))))))) and thank YOU, Rae for being such a caring friend to her.

God bless women for being able to cry. It may add years to your lives. It is calming somehow, so go ahead and cry!
You cry because you are human, with a heart of flesh, and frankly you're a woman. My wife cries easily too.
When a tear starts to form in my eye, it never goes down my cheek. It's a guy thing! We're more apt to blow a gasket, refusing to accept the truth.
I did not cry when my kid bro Al died of cancer this summer, I just "weirded out". Of course some say I was that way already.
Forgive guys who behave badly under stress...they can't cry so they just "blow up", and get weird.
Go play some baseball. There's no crying in baseball.

Thats so heart breaking news, I feel so Sad, I don't know her, But I feel emptiness in me, It is very difficult for me to even write this paragraph. Sometime we all have to accept, We have no control over it, Death is something which gets birth within us the day we born. I remember a famous quote by Dr. Ernesto Che Guevara "We born for ourselves, We eat for ourselves, But we are not for ourselves, Our emotions are for others, Our pain is for other, Our joy is for others, If you for single moment "lived a life for others" it worths a thousand of your lives, No body dies but he/she lives through children, Through her thoughts, Through her memories" How old is she? Can anyone tell me?
I guess good bye Gnostic...Hope to meet you in heaven

To everyone, namaste. We all take the same journey; its just that we leave at separate times. It's so important to actually FEEL, and then to share our feelings with others. Peace to all who read this.

"Blessed are they that mourn" for other people who are sick or facing severe problems. I don't know "gnostic", but I know you, and therefore I too mourn for you and her.
You are the epitome of what Jesus meant by "love one another" so that men will know that you love me.
