It is not what any of my friends expected or imagined, one of the best beings existing on earth, it took its soul to another path, another dimension. As things got hard in the past months for him, from all the personal life drama, the obstacles, and problems in making his dream come true with the LOV project, seeing all those things going not the way he dreamed or wished, overwhelmed came into his mind and once that night arrived after his birthday he just hit that damn wall in straight without a helmet. Now few days after the friends (his family in Bali Island) are taking him on the last road to honor his presence with a last goodbye. Taking James to the crematory, to finish the exit from this life in a Balinese style, the ceremony was led by a local Mangku, and all his friends from across Bali joined this painful moment. It seems unreal, it seems unacceptable, but it is what they had to face the real reason behind James departure maybe no one could guess it right, but each one of them has their version and one of the MM team versions is the fact that James was really depressed and he meant to get here voluntarily Now in his tribute the people he brought together from different social classes reunite for a last time because after this each one will go on its path. Dear James, thank you for what you left to us, your utopian family on earth, and time will say who and which one of us continued or truly believed in what you actually want to share with this world The only thing to know is things like your dreams dont come out that easily, and that fast patience, perseverance, and suffering build us to be able to hit harder and higher. Dear James rest in LOV and your memory will share some incredible stories and moments. For sure you are there somewhere better.

Amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Bali Island, a tale of unexpected transformation and heartache unfolds. James, a visionary soul driven by his dream project LOV, found himself at a crossroads. Battling personal demons and confronting the brutal realities of his ambitions, he made a fateful choice on a moonlit night, colliding headlong into the metaphorical wall that had seemed insurmountable. Days later, a somber procession of James' friends, his Bali family, embark on a poignant journey.
Led by a local Mangku, the ceremony embraces Balinese tradition as James is carried to the crematory. The island's diverse tapestry of mourners, from all walks of life, gather to bid farewell. Among them, his dreams live on, interwoven with memories of shared laughter and struggles.
In this final tribute, the threads of James' legacy converge. Amidst the fragrant plumes of incense, they find solace, united by the impact of his presence. As they part ways, each begins a journey shaped by his indomitable spirit. In the face of adversity, his story echoes, reminding them that dreams, like life itself, require endurance and resilience

Rest in LOV - James M. Criddle
