Affirmation

I decided early on that these posts would not be “how-to” or even try to be inspirational. I realize now that they have become a place of affirmation for me. “Look at my grief, is it ok? Am I doing this right? Is this what it should look like?”

Manageable

For me, grief is like carrying a bunch of individual items. By themselves, they don’t seem overwhelming, and together they are heavy, but if I stay balanced and keep moving, it’s difficult but manageable, mostly.

Plain

That mountain, valley and shadow of death were hard, really hard. This flat plain of putting one foot in front of the other and “moving on”, it’s hard, too. Really hard.
