I Lost Someone Important to Me

[big]Loss, Losing, Lost[/big]

I've never really cared for the term "lost" or "losing" when it comes to the death of someone, or at the end of a relationship. It sounds like they've been misplaced, or wandered off into the woods. Whenever I hear it, it makes me want to look under the couch cushions, just in case.

I remember thinking the same thing in a moment when I could even remotely entertain any notion of humour. When my dad passed away, and people, including myself were using the term "lost", I could almost envision hunting high and low, searching for him. But I knew he was nowhere to be found. (Well yes but that is another discussion) and with that a return to the sadness. Good post thank you.
