Losing close family and friends have impacted us in many ways. But how do we learn to accept and overcome the loss? How do we move forward without losing the memory of our loved ones?

Hello and welcome to Gen Z meets World podcast! In this episode, we talked about facing the loss of our loved ones, its effects on us and how to accept them.

We began the conversation by talking about why it is hard for children to overcome the loss of someone close to them. To explore this thought, we talked about our experiences when we lost someone close to us at a young age. We also thought about how the loss has gravely impacted us and reflected on how we learnt to accept them. Discussing the idea further, we pondered on how more recent losses have impacted us and why being older doesn't mean that it would be easier for one to accept a loss.

Aside from that, we also discussed a few difficulties we often face when trying to overcome the death of a loved one. One of the difficulties we mentioned was the fear of losing our memory of those who have passed away as time goes on. Closing the discussion, we highlighted the importance for us to try to move on from the loss we face and to help others move on too.

We really hope that this episode can help you find ways to accept and overcome the death of someone very close to you. They say that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. And it may be true. However, it is undeniable that such an impactful moment would still chip you and leave a scar. In the end, it isn't about finding ways to heal that scar, but rather to learn to accept it.

Please do share your experiences in facing the death of a loved one and how you learn to accept it. It may help someone else who is having a hard time.
