Hi, it’s me again.
Life asked death, why do people love me but hate you? Death responded because you are a beautiful lie, and I the painful truth.
It can be painful to find yourself in a position where a relationship with close family members is untenable, this, too, is a loss. You may end up feeling painfully lonely, and on good days there may be a feeling of overwhelming peace and freedom.
When you accept what has happened, you aren’t acknowledging it is okay but rather knowing there is a way to keep growing and living-even when you don’t feel like it. Don’t let grief be your constant companion. Realize your grief is born out of unconditional love and rejoice in that love which will never end.
Embracing life doesn’t mean you have stopped missing your loved ones, but an example love is eternal. Eventually, time will cease to stand still. Painful and terrible moments will still occur, striking poignant but comforting in that you will see them again.
You have to come to a place where you dry your tears. It may take months; it may take years.
Remember to keep the circle positive, peaceful and loving. ©
Written with love.
