1. I have waited intentionally to contact you. I know what you’ve been and are going through. Back in February I learned about Ben. I was shocked. I was so concerned for you Dave. A few years ago I lost 4 of my family in a 13 month stretch. I found no solice or relief until I found these words to gain perspective.
   There is no greater pain than the loss of our children. At there own hand is the harshest unbearable pain a human spirit can experience. The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. Make yourself revel in the warmest memories and love you felt. It’s never lost.
   You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same.
   Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to.
   Life is pain. Life is love. Life is loss. We can only move forward if we are to get through the pain with love in our hearts to this loss brings.
   Be strong.

I have suffered from depression my entire life and know about lonliness. It’s a miracle I am still here on this earth. May God wrap his arms around you at this difficult time and May you wrap your arms around God … I love your videos and shows and watch them all the time…Thank for you sharing the book Bhagavad Gita, I ordered it today. God bless you and your family
