So confusing

I just found out that my neighbour passed away six months ago. I’m not too sure how to react. It’s always a shock when somebody dies but the reality is that he wasn’t a good person. No one in my building liked him. He was mentally unstable and when he drank too much it brought out the worst in him. How do you expect to be remembered if you knowingly do bad things to people and show no remorse for it?

He was a tortured individual and now free. It's for the best.

Sounds like he had a lot of demons he was fighting. Hope he's found his peace.

For a start the second you die this world has no more importance to you.

The second you die everything you ever wanted in life dies with you. Life goes on.

As for a 6 month dead neighbour, I seriously doubt if it matters a jot what you or anyone else thinks.

Just be glad

you no longer have to put with him anymore. He's long gone and not coming back.

I'll bet it must have been a sparsely attended funeral service with hardly any mourners or friends to bid him farewell, if there was a service. People come and go.

Don’t even think about it. Not worth wracking your brain over. If someone did horrible things to me and I found out that person croaked, I wouldn’t even blink. Two words: good riddance.

Doesn’t matter anymore

What's confusing? Someone you didn't like died.

People will remember you as they perceived you, rightly or wrongly.

Out of sight out of mind

All kinds of people enter and then exit your life. Good folks are the ones we have fond memories of because of all their genuinely amazing generosity of spirit. Useless people with bad intentions fizzle out. Once they’re long gone and completely forgotten, no one remembers them anymore. What matters about the past is that it’s passed. Out of sight, out of mind. Case closed.
