I Feel Like a Shadow
When we get hit by loss, our entire being feels the shock. We can feel like we're somehow disappearing, like shadows in the night.
I'm Not the Same Anymore
Some losses change everything. We're not the same people we used to be. How could we be?
From the Grieving Heart:
Changes
Tim's birthday is coming up on July 25th. So many memories trying to crowd each other out. They laid this little tiny bundle in my arms and again my life changed. I had a 5 year old daughter waiting for us at home and she had already changed my life. Both of my babies changed my life for the better. I had two little ones who loved me unconditionally, and I loved them the same.
How Grief Changes Us: Forever & For Now
Grief is change. It changes our life, our routine, our plan and right along with it, grief changes us. Change is hard under the best of circumstances (new job, a wedding, a baby), but the changes we don’t ask for can be intolerable.
I Have More Questions Than I Realized
Loss generates questions - lots of them. Many of them have no satisfying answers, yet our hearts must ask them anyway.
Grief Attack
The sea is calm and tranquil; the birds soar in the sky. Sun glistening on the waves as the boats are sailing by. A gentle breeze felt on my cheeks as I step into the sand, the view bestowed upon me is looking very grand. A familiar contentment so near and felt within, peacefulness around me seems what today will bring.
Surely Someone Could Have Done Something
When loss strikes, we're stunned. We wonder about many things. Did it have to happen? Could someone have done something to prevent it?
