This week Jamie asks: What story do you wish to live or let go of?
Grief has affected my life in so many ways.
I am not the woman that I used to be.
Some people may fear grief, not understand it or maybe just don't care.
I am tired of pretending that this is not a part of me.
To stay silent so others can feel comfortable. Why should I have to
jump over THEIR hurdles when I have MY own obstacle course to go through?
Why stay in the "shallows" because others can't see the big, deep, blue sea?
MY life is a journey. There is joy and sorrow. Grief and gratitude.
Laughter and tears. Sunshine and rain.
Whatever the day may bring, I wish to embrace it , be in it and not to give
"two, tinkle, tinkle wolfs, wolfs"
worrying about what other people think.
What story do you wish to live or let go of?

Lissa, this is such a timely topic for me right now. As you know, it is the first anniversary of my mother's death and I am heartsick.
Thank you for stopping by my blog and for your kind comment.

I think it is oh so important to honour and let grief be in your life. I too have struggled lately with wanting to push down grief and pretend as though it does not impact me in the way that it does. But essentially I found that I had to sink into the grief in order to make my way through it.
