There should be a proper sticky for this. Often times I can't even express my sadness and grief on the org and I wonder if I am the only one missing Prince. We should be able to express our feelings on this more freely here, but maybe some people have issues with this. Not sure. ![]() We must be kindred spirits! I come here because I miss him and sometimes I feel like I can express that but more often than not there's too much squabbling for my taste. 2 sevens together | |

One way to channel grief is to help others in many ways. I don't have much free time so I end up donating, and now I do it in loving memory of Prince Rogers Nelson. Most recently, I had a large brick engraved with his name; the brick is to be installed in a community center courtyard. You could support the local animal rescue, or arts programs for children. All in his memory. | |

Yes I am planning on doing this but I have Prince fans in mind. It's good to make people smiling that are grieving. Prince I will always miss and love U. | |

No, not at all. It's the way he went. Suddenly, sadly and yes, just a bit mysteriously.
Took me a couple of years to get over MJ, but at least i know how he went.
I'm sad still, but get over acts i like and grew up with that die in a 'normal' manner far, far easier.
[Edited 9/24/16 16:09pm] Yeah, we'll, we'll try to imagine what silence looks like. | |

i have not even really let go and really get into the grief If you do not defended some speech you abhor then you do NOT support free speech. | |

No, I have not. But I am starting to accept that I never really will. And I don't think I want closure. I never want Prince to be a part of my past. I want to carry him with me always. God knows everything and I know nothing at all, so trying to make sense of everything is only holding me back. I have yet to accept that he will not be "here" anymore, but I will soon. I feel like a baby half the time. And I feel like a complete idiot that I have made this situation all about me in my mind. "I never got to meet Prince, never got to see him live...we were supposed to work together.. blah blah..." I feel robbed but I shouldn't at all. He has given me so many beautiful memories. What is not fair is that HE lost his life and he had so much more to give. It has nothing to do with me. I know I'll continue to have hard days...it's human nature. He was my friend

"to help others in many ways" I love this 1Sasha!!! There has been way too much negativity and disagreement on this website. I wish it had been handled differently than just fighting over people, opinions, teaming, projects, and even words for the love of God. I've seen definitions from different sources, or articles to prove one is wrong.
Whether one calls it closure or another calls is acceptance should not be the focus of this thread. The goal is to heal, find peace and happiness, and move forward. It aims at sharing ways to feel better about such a difficult situation we all have in common. As 1Sasha said "help others" and not argue over pity details.
Thus, please share what makes you feel better

I've accepted that P is gone, but no closure in sight Welcome home class. We've come a long way. - RIP Prince | |

I don't believe in 'closure' as a mindset, so I'm going to sit myself in the very comfortable zone of 'blissful constant denial'. . | |

No. I haven't yet, but I will one day. I'll always love his music tho. "Don't worry about what I'm doing. Worry about why you are worried about what I am doing." | |

I don't know what closure means.
But I have accepted that Prince is dead. That was hard but I have done it. What I haven't really dealt with is the manor in which he died because I don't know what's fact or fiction. Beautiful, Loved and Blessed
Thank You Prince | |

Intellectually I know he's gone, but what I have been hanging onto is the idea of one more time, can't stop hoping that I'll get one last goodbye, one last concert. I feel like I fell out of touch with a dear friend and found out they died and I didn’t get to say goodbye, guilt I guess. So until that is satisfied, I'm still waiting and hanging on..gosh that sounds crazy ..Hello, who is it?
Yes, this is a prettyman, Princey! | |
