"You are so right, mamzo. You wake up and you see something, smell something, somebody says something that your loved one loved saying, you see a TV show and it engulfs you all over again. That reality that you are never seeing this person ever again, strikes you once more. Grief is something else. This 'an angel watching over you blah blah blah' even irritates you because you don't want an angel, you want the person in flesh! AKA's passing is something else, I tell yah! Also, today marks 2yrs since Riky Rick (or Liky Licky as Bhova called him ) passed on. I was listening to FREE they did together and I was thinking: how wild is this?! Kiernan was so broken after Ricky's passing and now the both of them are no more. Honestly, sometimes life will have you ask God: but exactly with this concept of death, what were You thinking, sir because wow! Anyhew, condolences once more mamzo. We keep praying with and for you. May Riky and Kiernan continue to rest in perfect peace."
