Sometimes I just want to cry but have to stop crying.
My head hurts so bad, I can't bend over.
I thought I was doing so well. But the past two days I think I'm falling backwards. Yesterday I just couldn't snap out of it. No matter what I tried to tell myself I just couldn't get control of it. Now I'm sitting here at 6:50am and already crying.
Just checking in to say greetings to all! My heart hurts with you all.
Judy, am with you, sending lots of love to you. Have been reading and want to say so many things and go blank when i get here. Just feel everyone's pain and it is overwhelming , yet I know how brave and courageous everyone is... love to all and wishing for peace in our hearts.
Merry, it's hard to believe it's been that long. I'm glad you were able to make it through the day and be in a different place than during those first few months. For some reason, I seem to be backsliding, but I guess that's just part of the process.
My daughter and I have been spending a lot of time together and I'm enjoying every second of it. At times I feel saddened because of course I think of how Michael's not here to share it or for me to tell him about it.
Yesterday while talking to her without thinking I started to tell her I needed to call Michael to .......I stopped, realized what I just said and yes cried.
Connie I'm going to do that because when I first read the post I wanted to respond to the girl but I didn't, instead I responded to Jessy. This will be a nice way to put it out there without targeting certain comments.
Unfortunately you find out who your friends are - the ones who will be there waiting for you no matter how long it takes. Most folks can't fathom this grief because it is their worst fear. As long as we seem to be back to "normal" then they don't have to think about the reality of death. But is a reality of life so to those who can't "go there", sorry that's too bad. We can't deny our truth just to make others feel less uncomfortable. If your cousin's friend is important to her then maybe she can explain to her it doesn't work that way or share the poem about what to do and not to do. I did that with my best friend and she appreciated it. I do have to recommend a book once again that deals with this issue in such a beautiful and right on way. It's called "Tear Soup". It really helps people understand that we all grieve in our own time and our own way.
I am sending love to everyone here today
