Capture your Grief, day 13


Day 13 – Educate (what do you want others to know about your experience with grief?)

I could probably write forever on this. But I am ready for bed, so I’m going to keep it short…

Grief…

Grief is love with no where to go. It is all the love you want to, but cannot, give. That love pools in the corners of your eyes, it builds a lump in your throat and a thumping in your chest.

It is unpredictable, and it is surprising. It is never ending, and it is forever changing.

One day you are on top of it, the next it is fighting hard to get on top of you.

Grief is the result of a love so strong and deep it was hard to say goodbye, hard to lose.

Grief is intense and at times debilitating.

Grief looks like smiles mixed with tears. It is the onset of things like panic attacks that have no place in your predictable, calm day.

Grief doesn’t follow any rules or travel any set road.

Grief can lay dormant for a long time and come roaring to the surface when you least expect it.

Grief takes no notice of time of day, where you are, who you are with or what you are doing.

Grief is unpredictable and surprising. It is never ending and forever changing!
