“You look taller”

18th October 201921st October 2019 ~ thegriefreality ~ 10 Comments

It's been a slow transition but I wish I could tell my counsellor that I finally stepped down from that tightrope where I couldn’t put a foot wrong. I wish I could tell her that actually “Katie does make mistakes” but I can handle them – it’s okay.

Exactly Where We Are Meant To Be

20th September 201920th September 2019 ~ thegriefreality ~ 7 Comments

I'm made up for my little sister and best friend. So proud of how she has overcome every challenge thrown at her and still able to find the positive in every situation.

2 Weeks Left At Home!

We are truly exhausted physically, but mentally, we are stronger and happier than ever.

“I Should Stay Strong but I’m WEAK … and What’s Wrong With That?”

31st July 20191st March 2020 ~ thegriefreality ~ 19 Comments

I get stuck in my head a lot. I think and think and think, and sometimes the words I want to say just dry up in my mouth, and I keep everything inside. It’s not that I actively choose to not talk about it anymore, I just can’t express myself.

Brand New

10th July 201928th August 2019 ~ thegriefreality ~ 18 Comments

Why do we have this self-imposed idea that throughout our lives we are meant to maintain a perfect, crisp version of ourselves? Like untouched snow, or fresh school shoes that we don't want to scratch.

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.

#4 Thursday Thoughts: When Was The Last Time You Cried?

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?
