Thank you for your concern. That goes to everyone here.
As for belief in an afterlife, that's still something I want to believe in it, but I can't. The reason I don't believe in any Gods is simply that I have no evidence that any God exists. The problem is, the same logic applies to the after life: I see no evidence that it exists. While it would be nice to take comfort in, I can't convince myself of something I know in my mind is a lie.
All that is left of him is memories and I'm going to treasure those. My boyfriend is a very talented artist and he wants to express some of how he's feeling with his art, so that should help keep his memory alive, too.
