Their have been a few occasion in my life when the sense of loss was a bit overwhelming. I pretty much held it together when my Mom passed last year at 96. The last few months were extremely hard for her having broke her hip and issues with her circulation. She also had outlived all her peer group and relatives. Of course it was expected once she hit her 90s it was going to get hard. That is why I moved back here.

There are a few others that tore me apart. I generally as very strong and hold things together. I rarely display those hard things public ally. I have shared with folks very close to me.

Those situation have not caused me to become more religious but possibly more spiritual since no other word comes to mind to explain the head space I am in.

Instead of pushing my need to grieve on the back burner, a common behavior, I surrendered to something great, embracing my own grieving heart.

"G, you have to grieve. Letting the emotional flood gates open and being willing to 'feel' and 'deal' with your emotions is so important."

A natural part of any healing process. Loved one who pass are not with us in the physical sense, but the memories never depart us. In those, we can find comfort.
