Grief Is Never Ending

Good evening. Monday blog. He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3. Grief changes shape along the way, but, it never ends. I’m pretty sure it will go on the rest of my life. It’s a passage, it’s the price of love. We can be a light that shines, long after the storm! Just don’t forget to breathe. Some people are thoughtless with their words, like that can magically make it disappear. Grief is not a disorder, not a disease, or a sign of weakness! No medicine for that kind of pain, no cure. Grief is an emotional, physical, and spiritual necessity. You have to grieve, to take care of grief! There are steps to grieving well. You can move forward with all of the proper steps, and still cry about the loss of a beautiful life. Even in his 70’s, Denny was taken way to soon. Keep breathing, I tell myself, I want my life to be well lived. God is giving me that, not because I deserve it, but because God is loving and compassionate and forgiving. I know Denny is safe from all of the ugliness this world is going through! When my dad passed away, my weight seemed under control. I did not know how to grieve or anything about it. I sat down in our lazy boy chair and ate my way up to 234 lbs. Was that a healthy way to grieve? NO!!! I didn’t put in all of this work to be healthy, to go right back where I started! NO!!! I am 67, I am running out of time, so to speak. I need to make the best of my years left! It is what Denny would want. I know it is what God wants! Today is 6 months since God called him home! I’ll never stop missing him, my life can still move forward! It’s what Angel Wings would want! Good night. God bless.❤️🤗🙏🏻🤗❤️
