i did something today

it might be a disrespect idk

i was getting the rubbish into the outside wheelie bin ready for collection tomorrow

and most of Ebony's furs off of the staircase i had swept up

i put it all in one of the bin bags without thinking and now i cant identify which bin bag its in, its all in the bin outside

if i let it all go to the bin lorry etc will that be a disrespect to my angel Ebony

i got two memorials for her in the house without her furs
 
i keep thinking my friend from the suicide prevention forum (freshhell her username was) and Ebony was the same

Ebony was my second chance to save freshhell

idk if i getting tangled in my brain though
 
They are seperate. And from what I know you went above and beyond for both of them. It is sad. But its a part of life that beings leave. But in no way is this your fault or are you to blame.

Blame is something you do yourself. Eventhough I think there is not a bone in your body that wants to do harm or is bad.

well said
 
Guilt can cause a lot of problems, you need to overcome it. There is something called forgiveness, you need to forgive yourself. Forgiving yourself is harder than forgiving other people but once you can do it, you will start experiencing true happiness.
