If you could spend one more day with someone you've lost, how would you spend it?

Question

With Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) being celebrated, I’ve been thinking about the loved ones who are no longer with us. I think it’s such a beautiful tradition, honoring their lives and keeping their memories alive.

If you could have just one more day with someone you miss dearly, how would you spend it? Would you do something special, revisit a favorite memory together, or simply enjoy being in their presence again?

My grandpa. He is one of the few people in my dad's side of my family that actually cared about me. He was so SO loving, was quiet but wise with his words and advice, and great sense of humor. He loved turkey legs at Thanksgiving. So if i could one more time i would be at the table eating turkey with him and us talking about life. From the time i was a baby till in my teens, every time he visited he would take me and we walked all the way around the property. Talking and/or just enjoying time in nature. If i could with him again id do that too, he would adore the farmland im on now.

You probably already know that it would be time spent with my late boyfriend Patrick.❤️

I would just want to talk and be playful together like always. Cook him a big steak that he loved to eat.

This time of year, well in the Fall 🍂 🍁 I would like to hold hands and go for a walk around the big block I live in. I taught him the names of the trees. He would get some eucalyptus off the tree and we would smell it together and enjoy nature.

Of course we would kiss 💋 and
hug 🫂 a lot. He loved being touched. 🥲

RIP Patrick John ❤️ 🍪 🥛

Definitely my mom. I’d take her to The Kentucky Derby. She loved horses and The Triple Crown (I think she got into it when Secretariat was alive and winning), and she said she always wanted to go to The Derby and wear one those big hats, haha. I wish she could’ve gone in her lifetime.

I’d make sure I get to tell them that I will never forget them, that they made an impact in my life one way or another and that their loved ones will be looked after as well…, I’ve lost many people who looked very healthy but weren’t open about their conditions till after their passing…

I would like to spend it with my mom reminiscing. And I would like to tell her how much I appreciate all she did for me. I don't think I did much of that when she was alive. She died of cancer in 1997 when I was 43 years old but she was in bad shape for two years prior.

Doing what we loved goofing off and having fun he deserves that much at least instead of what actually happened to him.

I WOULD say I'd spend it with my arms wrapped around my fiance and doing lots of the things together that we'd always planned to do but, as she's not dead and I HOPE THAT DOESN'T happen for an EXTREMELY long time!!! So, I'd probably go with mom to see if she could help change the verdict of the court a few years ago that cost me MY house, the one mom left to ME!!

Get a good pizza, go home and eat with my mom and brother, make her some popcorn later and watch a movie. That’s what she liked to do

My grandmother. She passed a year ago. I miss her. We used to do simple things like eat together or watch movies. I miss that. 🤷‍♂️

I'd tell them that some divine force is allowing them to stay on Earth for one more day, and that we have to move quickly to find out who/what is controlling this and defeat them so she can get her life back.

AngryCarl3 · Answer

I'd start by saying I'm sorry I treated them like a piece of shit.

My first girlfriend was murdered, raped and thrown in the dirty river while police had me locked up for vagrancy. She was 16. We were homeless teens.
