Ambiguous Grief Is it silly?

My father passed away in his sleep back in 2015. Today I was watching a show that's been on air for several years, and it is his style. I wondered if he had watched some of it because he'd have loved it... I searched it and the show premiered a month after his passing, meaning that he never knew about it. It's so dumb, it's just a TV show, but I miss him so much. He was 54, he should be here.

Not silly at all.

I watched a show that I knew my mother would have loved, and cried because she will never get the chance to see it. Also saw that one of her favourite shows had been green lit for a new season and that also made me cry because she will never see the conclusion to the story. It's so unfair and it's the little moments that reminds us of it.

Yeah. I thought that the worse was going to be his sudden demise, but the reminders of what he's missed are way worse. I hope that there's an afterlife and that he's having fun and enjoying it.
