Random Thoughts About Grief

Hi everyone:
This post is excerpted from a book which I co-authored with Linda Findlay of Mourning Discoveries on navigating through grief during the holidays. You can find more information on our book at www.mourningdiscoveries.com or at www.bootsyandangel.com  Here it is:


1. You can't control when grief hits you, no matter how hard you try.
2. Everyone grieves at their own pace and in their own way.
3. Our deceased loved ones are always with us ,and we can still have relationships with them.
4. Time doesn't always heal, but gives us an opportunity to adjust to a new reality.
5. In time, you will have more good days than bad.
6. Do not underestimate the power of a really good support network.
7. Grief may make you feel crazy, but it doesn't mean you are crazy.
8. The grief journey is never linear, but it is always circular.
