but I'm not looking for approval or sympathy.  I just want to say this.

Life is the most beautiful thing. When someone reach the point of giving it up... I don't know, I can't even imagine what she is been through. My thoughts and prayers

May they find some peace in this time of grief.

Hey man,  

Although I don't know you personally, I truly send you and your family my prayers and love. I hope that you all have the strength and loving support of one another to stay strong. Remember no weapon formed against us shall prosper, however, it doesn't mean weapons wont form. Your loss is not in vain because someone reading this message will surely take heed to what you have written, I for one will be telling my loved ones how I feel for them tonight.

I am terribly sorry to hear of your loss. I wish you and your family my thoughts and prayers. Your post does however remind us not to take those closest to us for granted. Lest it be too late to say and express how you feel. Again I'm sorry for your loss but a much needed reminder at times.

Sorry for your loss. I have also lost some very close family members.

You have my deepest condolences and sympathy.  I, too, lost someone very close much too soon a couple of years ago.  Nothing can prepare you and nothing can ease the numbing pain.  You just learn to live with it.

Life is so short, and fragile.  We never know fully what it's like to walk in someone else's shoes, or what they are going through in life.  Words of compassion and caring, and love, are so much more valuable than criticisms.  Kindness has so much more strength than indifference and hostility.  Never miss a chance to show kindness and love, as we only have a limited time in this world to make a difference. 

No human being should ever victimize another for the choices they make.  

Oh no I'm so sorry for your loss

I am sorry for your loss I agree that we all should let those we love, know we love them.  If I could only speak to my dad one more time It's especially difficult when it's so sudden.  
my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this terrible time of loss.  
Hugs and kisses

Sorry so to hear about your tragic lost.  You post is on point.

Preachers and religious folks say that everyone has a purpose and perhaps her example will help yo one day find solace in what she brought to your world - especially your sibling (since you indicated the deceased was a sister-in-law with sexuality issues).  

While I am no fan of tattoos art, this simple expression makes sense.  A reminder totaled a pause, the story should continue, and often improves.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

My condolences to you and your family I just cannot

accept such human suffering and loss in this day and age where society has moved forward so much .. at least that's what we would like to believe. I am so sad and angry at the same time.
Peace be with you ... take care.  

to the ladies that contacted me privately via PM, email or text.  

a lot of people have demons and you can't do any thing about it. I agree tell people you love as much as you can. Sorry Dude-horrible.

I'm so sorry for you loss!!!
Thoughts and prayers for you and your family!!!!

While your message is absolutely correct, it probably did little good here.
I'll bet lots of guys called their wives to say they love them, right before cheating on them yet again.
Genuinely sorry for your loss, but I think having emotions that contain real value is long behind too many here.

Oh, I thought you'd quote some obscure study that supports the thought that
 "Women are twice as likely to attempt suicide than Men, but Men are 4 times more likely to succeed."  
Then you could say something truly classless like "Congratulations for having a Sister in law who is as smart as a Man".  

So whore mongers are incapable of having "emotions of real value", is that what you are saying?  

It never ceases to amaze me that in this day and age people are still so small minded. My heart felt condolences to you and your family. This should never have happened. In larger cities there are teen centers that help deal with this stuff. This is evidence of the fact that homosexuality is NOT a choice. No one would CHOOSE to be humiliated and exiled in their own home by their own family, their own church, their own town. It is ignorance that sets up a scenario like this one.

This is a safe arena to discuss what others will only whisper about. It matters. I care. And as a bisexual woman, have been touched by some of these attitudes.
