Be Present.
Let the day flow with grace. Expect nothing. Give thanks. Surrender. Be open. Speak only kindness. Impart only love. Never forget you're not alone. Give so you may receive. See goodness in others.

 Grief starts to become indulgent, and it doesn't serve anyone, and it's painful. But if you transform it into remembrance, then you're magnifying the person you lost and also giving something of that person to other people, so they can experience something of that person.
 It's not easy, some of our most valued and fulfilling experiences are often colored with a tinge of pain. Good days and bad days will be quite normal for you to see-saw up and down between feelings of coping and despair. As time goes on you will experience more peaks and fewer troughs and the troughs will become progressively shallower.
Part of coping with grief is learning to tolerate and work through painful emotions; it's normal to to feel feel frustration and depression – but please believe it is worth it EVERY DAY to take a deep breath, and START AGAIN. If you’ve cut out activities that used to be an important part of your life, it may be time to try scheduling them back in. Some of these activities may no longer feel pleasurable, if they remind you of your loved one, they require effort, or force you to confront difficult emotions.... you should consider scheduling them in anyway.  Forever in our Heart
Those we love can never be more than a thought apart, for as long as there's a memory they live on in our heart. Grief never ends ...but it changes. It's a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith... It is the price of love.  ~ Author Unknown
As I sit in heaven And watch you everyday I try to let you know with signs I never went away I hear you when you’re laughing And watch you as you sleep I even place my arms around you To calm you as you weep I see you wish the days away Begging to have me home So I try to send you signs So you know you are not alone Don’t feel guilty that you have Life that was denied to me Heaven is truly beautiful Just you wait and see So live your life, laugh again Enjoy yourself, be free Then I know with every breath you take You’ll be taking one for me…  There is the never ending pile of laundry, food prep, emails, etc that could always use our attention. It's easy to make excuses for why we can't make ourselves a priority - the expense, the time... but when you take care of yourself, YOU'LL FEEL GREAT!
So what are you doing to feel great? What can you do to "fill your well" and rejuvenate? Please take time to do something you love; because you deserve it.  Love is patient; Love is kind, Love does not insist on its own way. Love bears all things, believes all things, Hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
I Corinthians 13:4-8  Refuse to let the loss overshadow your blessings.

Grief is NOT a disorder, a disease or a sign of weakness. It is an emotional, physical and spiritual necessity, the price you pay for love... The only cure for grief is to GRIEVE...   Grief changes us
The pain sculpts us Into someone who Understands more deeply Hurts more often Appreciates more quickly Cries more easily Hopes more desperately Loves more openly  Healing through grief
is not about learning how to STOP missing you. It is about learning to live my life WHILE missing you. The reality is you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one...
You will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same again. Nor should you be the same... nor should you want to. |
