Dying is easy; living is the most difficult. In ‘The Book of Life’, an animated film by Guillermo del Toro, a museum guide explains to children how Mexican culture interprets death in playful and festive key. I don’t know if dying is easy or difficult because I’m still on this side of the barrier; I do not believe that we have come to this world to suffer and that abandoning it is a kind of liberation; but I wish it existed a manual for managing the loss of loved ones. Buddha already said that Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional. I believe that these dates, in which – with the permission of the pandemic – the party spirit reigns, are also special because of the memory of those who are no longer there; and that duel puts us to the test. Now that the problems of mental health They seem to be coming out of the closet (visca la Marató !!!), let’s take advantage of it.

Mariola, inconsolable after staying a few months ago without her soul friendHe confesses that every day he wears some of his garments to remember her; and looks for words to explain the devastating physical sensation of absence: “I would give a good part of what I have to be able to hug her once more & rdquor ;. Charles, widower for a year and a halfStill devastated and with three young children in his care, he invokes a spell: “When the five of us were in the car we had the feeling that nothing bad could happen to us.

After listening to them, I don’t know if Buda or Guillermo del Toro are right; the only thing clear is that talking about those who are absent is comforting and that there are no more effective balms against grief than empathy and affection. They can work miracles.
