We do received sad news, and it affects our emotions. At times, when I'm alone I couldn't control myself feel the loneliness but that's life. People may come to your life, but eventually they need to go. You can't do anything about it. But I try myself not to cry. It's fine to feel sad but don't let it control your life.
I miss this mountain trip, and I hope to go there again. For sure there are nice views that we haven't seen in this place yet.
