He never got to see me own my own home, meet my fiance, or see me launch a company. I keep pushing on in his memory but the truth is I've lost my only true sounding board and moral compass, I feel very lost w/o him. My heart goes out to you.

I've largely overcome the worst of my grief, and I am focusing forward. In time you will too. That is one of the real tests of life - coping with grief.
As you indicated, if we can just learn to cherish every year, every month, every day, every hour, every minute, every second, every breathe, we will eventually realize ourselves, and become a beacon and light for those around us, in this experience which we call life.
Namaste,
ADG
