The questions STILL remain.

As I sit and read through 2 years worth of emails I still find myself in shock over his death, the memories we had and the little I knew about his real life.

I cleaned out my “sent” email box the other night. Therein, I found an unanswered email to Mikey from the day he died. Such silence in the unanswered. Such void.
How long do the questions last? When does the grief settle? Will I ever stop dreaming of seeing him and saying “You’re alive! I knew you weren’t dead!!!” only to awake to silence again?

Very touching video. I met Meir many years ago, as I was/am close with his father. Hatzlacha with all.

In our email contacts, he often signed off with something that I loved… it was “your thoughts?” – Even though he knew what he wanted, knew what he was saying, he left room for you to agree, disagree, and contribute.

I sort of ‘adopted’ this practice from him, and feel warm each time I write it… and hope the person on the receiving end of my email appreciates it as I did.

Glad to share with you.

It is too much to bear knowing he’s gone for so long already. My heart aches just remembering he is no longer here let alone with us. I miss him or maybe I miss what he did to us all..

It doesn’t really change. Someone brought him up today and it broke my heart all over again. He was precious to me and a dear, dear friend. He is irreplaceable.

I first received this video on the day of Meir’s yartzheit and couldn’t watch it all the way through to the end, too many tears..too much pain..too much of me breaking apart.
To say Meir lived BIG is the truest way to describe him. Nothing in halves, he gave his entire gut to everything he did, made you feel like you were the only thing that mattered in that moment. One of his myriad talents was making each and every person feel that way. You felt the presence of a great and powerful person when you were with him, his love and respect were always palpable.
He changed the course of my life in so many ways as well, he taught me about the true meaning of LIFE! He always told me- never be complacent, it’s the worst place to be and you’ll never accomplish anything like that. He roused me out of my self-induced stupor and made me think, made me feel again.
I thank G-d for bringing him into my life and affecting all of us in so many immeasurable and profound ways.
This world was too small to contain the sould of a man so big.

Thank you for posting this. I still miss him very much. I’m deeply grateful to have been his friend.
