Revolt Against Valentines Day

13th February 202110th February 2021 ~ thegriefreality ~ 74 Comments

I've not really been one to ever let myself be overly emotional about relationships, so it wouldn't make sense for me to barrel full-force into oversized valentines day cards, stuffed bears carrying hearts and triumphantly pull out and a box of chocolates and say THIS IS IT. THIS IS THE ONE.

Growth #2: Forgiveness

18th November 202018th November 2020 ~ thegriefreality ~ 32 Comments

I do not see myself as a problem. I do not need to be fixed. I think I am a puzzle piece that ended up in a bag of mixed up puzzle pieces, who are simply trying to work out what the riot of reds, a sweep of blues, and garish purples amount to. It's a hard job for anyone to do, really.

This post is from my post ‘The Things That Make Life Beautiful’ ❤️
I know it seems that this pandemic will never end, particularly as it follows us into a new year. Please know that you are not alone in your struggle. Mum used to remind us that if it’s not okay then its not the end, and now more than ever, I trust my mum. 💕
Dear You, In case no one has told you recently, I am really proud of you. I am really proud of you for showing up every day and getting through 2020. You got through the festive period during a pandemic while holding your grief, and you are still standing. I am really proud of you, and I hope you take the time to reflect on all that you have been through this year. It is no small feat.

We always feel so much better after a good cry. How about you?

Breathe For The Moment

Breathe For The Moment

We live in the present, the only gift we have, and think of what could happen next. What plethora of opportunities there are, who we may meet, what songs we may hear.

How Do You Know You’ve Done The Right Thing?

How Do You Know You’ve Done The Right Thing?

I think this is a poignant question, and one I think about often; especially as a young person being without their Mum. I think a question that is good to ask ourselves when we are trying to work out whether we have done the right thing, is how do we know when we have done the wrong thing?
