I Know Loss

Life goes on with or without you! No matter how or what u decide to do with ur life...time marches on! And...yes! It's up to us to steer ourselves towards growth, strength, courage and compassion towards ourselves and others. That said...the pain of grief comes over some of us like a blackish cloud that surrounds us taking our breathe away! I am now in that cloud!!! I just realized that it's coming up on my moms b-day & 1 yr anniversary of her death!!! Good thing drinking alcohol is NOT an option or suicide is NOT in my vocabulary... Facing this dark cloud has been the hardest thing since forgiving my abusive and tormenting father! I'm hoping that this experience will only make me stronger! Why? It beats the hell out of being 6 feet under! I miss her voice and hilarious outlook on life! Plz share with me if u know what I'm going thru and /or can give me any words of encouragement? You are all my adopted family of intelligent, thought provoking and ( sometimes) quirky/ funny minds!!! Thx very much for any suggestions u may have!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Plz be safe!
Sincerely,

The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not 'get over' the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to...Elizabeth Kubler Ross
