Grief

I saw this the other day

What it's like to go through grief 

1. Crying for every reason, and no reason at all.

2. Missing your loved one more than words can express.

3. Feeling like no one in the entire world understands what you're going through.

4. Longing to talk to the person you miss.

5. Wishing you could go back to the way things used to be.

6. Wondering of you could have changed things.

and so much more...

 

I would like to add:

1. Needing to talk about them. I need to hear you say his name, and tell me special things about him. It helps me remember. I'm sorry if I go on and on about him sometimes, but it helps me to heal.

2. Don't tell me you know how I feel - you can't. You may have lost someone also, and I am so sorry, but everyone grieves differently.

3. Please don't compare the death of my husband with your divorce. I do feel bad for you, but his death was certainly not my choice.

4. Let me cry. It really does help.

5. Don't ignore me ~ I need my friends and family now more than ever.

6. Give me time, I will heal eventually.
