What Is Death - and How Do You Go On Living?

Death is when silence becomes loud.
When someone you loved no longer answers.
When the world keeps running, and you remain standing still.

What is death — and how do you live after it?

Death is when silence becomes loud.
When someone you loved no longer answers.
When the world keeps moving forward, and you feel left behind.

It is not just an event.
It is a rupture.
A void that aches.
A feeling as if the air itself has grown heavier to breathe.

And in every small thing — its presence.
In a shadow.
In a scent.
In a favorite cup.
In a memory.

As if it is still here.
Everywhere.
But silent.

How do you live with this?

There is no single answer.
But one thing is certain:

do not stay silent,

do not be ashamed of your tears,

do not force yourself to “return to normal.”

Because normal has changed.

And yet — it is possible to live.
In very small steps.

A sip of tea.
A conversation.
A touch.
A walk.
The warmth of another hand.

This is not about forgetting.
It is about learning how to breathe alongside the loss.

Because over time, it stops screaming.
It becomes a part of you.

And then you understand:
if it hurts, it means it mattered.
And what truly mattered never disappears completely.

Life goes on.
With it.
Within you.
