Getting back to my new normal....

Dealing with the grief of losing my son is almost unbearable some days and all of my family and friends try and get me out of the house. Last night my family hosted a costume party and I just threw something together. I was going for Julia Roberts, Pretty Woman but I got Dorothy Dandridge, Jessica Rabbit all night. 🙂 I think I needed that outing more than I realized.

You look amazing! Grief knows no bounds and no time limits, living your life is really good for you and doesn’t take away from your son. 🤗
My brother died almost 4 years ago, I raised him like a son while we were growing up. It devastated me, I took a break from life except for work for months, I couldn’t cope with people living life like nothing happened (even though they didn’t know my brother) and slowly started to socialize and it did me so good. I truly hope last night did you good and you felt some light in your life again. 🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂

You look wonderful as always. And I think you're doing the right thing in resuming normal activities. My mother did exactly that after the death of my brother. She always carried the wound in her heart but felt it would be a sin to carry on with life to it's fullest.

@ineedadrink It's definitely hard but I gotta keep on pushing..... And thanks!
@PEACH4LIFE I cannot fathom what that is like. But, tragically, people do move on without us.

A line from Lonesome Dove. “The only thing you can do about death is ride off from it.” I didn’t know what that meant when I read it, but I do now.

I know nothing about your personal tragedy, but I know one thing. Young or old, nobody who loved you would wish you to shrivel up and wait to die.

Your son wants you to live fully. For him.

Well you certainly look stunning 👀👀
I am sure it did you good 😊

@Strictmichael75 it was a good distraction. I didn't stay long but I had fun.

You look very beautiful and remember the best way to honor a loved ones memory is to celebrate not only their life but life itself. To keep them alive and enjoy they brought you in your heart everyday. That's what they would want for you also. And remember you will see them again in next time it will be forever
Really sorry to hear about your loss- it's great you have family and friends who are for you!

Looking very nice!

@BritishFailedAesthetic Thank you and I'm so grateful for them. 🙂
You are looking gorgeous. Your loss is unbearable but life has to move on, you have to move forward for those who depend on you

@darkknightt So true.

You look great. I hope you keep having fun. I'm sure your son wouldn't want you to be unhappy forever.
PEACH4LIFE · 46-50, F
@meggie he really wouldn't. He always encouraged me to get out and enjoy myself. 🙂
meggie · F
@PEACH4LIFE well he's looking down happily from heaven now.
