What can you do, crawl into a cave for the rest of your life and be miserable 'cause someone died?

And that's what I would want people to do too - when I'm gone, laugh and live their lives... happily, not mourn and sit around gloomy and dark. Life is not worth living that way.

Exactly. You've got the right idea. I have never lost anyone close to me so I don't know what it must feel like but I'm glad to see my friend staying as positive as she can in this situation. Its been hard on her and she has had days where she just cries but she hasn't forgotten to live her life.
