Excellent and so very true! After the sudden death of my husband, which was devastating, year one was much as you described it, expected, supported, agonizing. By year two the grief was deeper, more real, and I remember thinking at one point, If I'm not feeling better in a year, I really don't want to be here. And amazingly, in that year many things changed! I began seeing in color again, noticed birds and flowers. Didn't exactly have a zest for living but rather accepted that I was still here. And began reaching out again to life, and love. Thank you for this article, I needed to remember . . .
Thank you so much for sharing your experience Cheryl. There's so much wisdom in it. I'm so sorry for the sudden death of your husband. And I'm glad you're here. ❤️
Brings back memories of the first couple years after losing my parents. Thanks for your insightful perspective.
And thanks to you. It’s a sweet reminder we will all experience this in some way. 💖
