A personal example would be an ex-best friend of mine who once told me that he always had to clean his ears after he showered or else they itched for the rest of the day. Most of the time, I can't look at a q-tip without thinking back to that moment, and various other little moments that just remind me of how much I enjoyed his friendship.
The falling out was terrible and I was certainly affected, but from it I gained experience and wisdom that I didn't have before. Death inevitably ends life, but we shouldn't be afraid of it for either ourselves or others because of the pain it may, and probably will, cause. Remember the journey and grow from it.
