Weekend Engagement 139: Weekend sharing / My way of assimilating losses.
¡Greetings dear readers!
Have a good Sunday, everyone! I hope you had a great weekend, before ending mine I want to share my participation in this weekend's challenge where @galenkp proposes various topics to develop, in my case I have chosen to talk about loss and how I has affected, I hope as always that you like it, without further ado, here I will talk a little.
I consider myself a person with a high level of emotional attachment to both people and animals and objects. If something or someone is important to me, I will surely stick to it and losing that in my life can mean the worst for me. clearly we all have our ways of dealing with a loss, whether it be of a person or the opportunity of our lives, so I will tell you a little about my way of coping with it.
If we talk about people, I know many but there will always be someone of the utmost importance. In my childhood it was my paternal grandmother with whom I was always attached and united. I lost her when I was barely 11 years old and until now she has been the only person in my life for which I suffered a lot as a result of his departure, in addition to the fact that I had to live that as a child I was not prepared for such a situation at all, even if it had been today I think it would have been even worse because I would have developed much more attachment towards her, at the time it was something that was very difficult for me to assimilate and unfortunately I did not have anyone by my side to give me an explanation or help me cope with that, I simply had to do it on my own, it was not easy at all to assimilate that I did not have my grandmother with me, the only person in the world who really loved me and took care of me, this has undoubtedly been the most painful loss I have had in terms of a person, I am lucky that The people I love and appreciate are still with me, so my grandmother has been the only significant loss I've had.
I have also experienced emotional attachment to animals, I have had many pets, the vast majority have been dogs and losing them has never been easy for me, many people see animals as something insignificant but for me they are one more member of the family, I I become very attached to them and develop an incredible affection for them, so losing them for me is like losing a family member. In the last 3 years I have lost 2 pets, one loss more painful than the other and that has led me to not have any more. pets, at least for a while, because it has taken me a lot to get used to their absence and the simple fact of knowing that they have died is something that depresses me.
On the other hand, there is also the loss of objects, but not just any object but those that I consider important and special, since I was a child I have also been attached to material things, from birthday gifts or something that I simply liked a lot, I must confess that I still I keep certain things from my childhood and losing them would be very sad for me, I also keep many of my boyfriend's gifts from the beginning of our relationship but there have been others that I have lost, situations that were out of my hands resulted in the loss of many of My belongings, among them objects of great sentimental value to me, even today I think about it a lot and I regret not having been able to recover those things but I can't do anything anymore.
As you can see, I am a person with an incredible attachment to everything, both to people and to material things, it may be a terrible defect that I have but that has allowed me to value what I have and keep them with me no matter what and that has been worth it for me the sorrow.

It´s so painful when we lose something we value and cherish, either someone close to us, a pet we are taking care of, or objects we hold so dearly to us. It always feels like a surprise and shock to see such special things leaving us forever and there is nothing we can do about it. The loss of my mother was so painful to me and till today, I wish I had a power to stop her then.
It is very true, the losses are very painful, no matter what it is we are never prepared to lose someone or something important, I am sorry for the loss of your mother, I hope you find a way to overcome that pain
