Heavenly father.
Please watch over joeys family, mother,father,children, grandchildren, and all his friends, whom are in a bad way in a time of sorrow & confussion.
Please comfort and guide those who are having difficulty processing a loved 1’s passing?.
In times in a lose of a loved 1 we may forget those who where closest to Joey and confuse the outward appearance VS our inner light and not see some one is actually dying inside of grief?.
Cause we to try and process the loss of a ?’d .
So in closing remain close with 1another and talk it out instead of closing off and pretending to be the tough 1. Because a life u safe might be a life alive today?.
TBH I know what it’s like to hold my feelings in and alls it did eas tear me down and have me a false sense of security. Which in turn lead me down a destructive path of destruction.
? & prayers to the family and friends.
A’ho mitakuye oyasin?❤
