I'm holed up in my office with the door closed. I don't want to talk to anyone, and I don't feel like doing anything. I know everyone is wondering what's wrong with me. The world is different now. And I keep wondering why everything doesn't feel so different to everyone else. Except for here - where everyone understands.

I know. (((Marie))) I see the people at work walking by doing what they do everyday and they haven't got a clue. Being a brokie never caused me this much pain. But I'll be forever grateful for Ennis.
I'm glad I'm here.

I know that Heath was his own person, but I don't know that person... so my grief is tied with the character he played.

It's such a tragic loss of a young life.
I agree with what you say here though. It is like losing Ennis. And because I relate so much to him, it's like a distant friend gone. But always there in the movie.

I have received many calls and emails from non-Brokie friends sending their condolences.
I'm a pretty "out" Brokie; even at work, everyone is asking if I'm OK. "I heard about Heath--I thought of you right away." I just have to try to keep my composure at work.
I can't/won't watch TV

I'm an "out" brokie as well and everyone knows I love Heath and I have to say that the people I work with were amazingly sensitive and supportive today, offering hugs and everything. Some said that they could relate because they went through a similar grieving process when Princess Diana was killed. Anyway, it really helped.

You're both very lucky indeed.
hugs to both of you.
BelAir:
I just wanted to share some thoughts about the black bag. It was an object with the shell that had previously housed Heath. At the time the stretcher left the house, Heath had already left his body - he wasn't there, he wasn't in that bag. His physical form is something that we grieve over, but it isn't him.
That is what I think, at least.
