In the Wake of Grief

When you lose someone who is the most important part of your life, your world changes. And so do you. Inevitably and irreversibly, you’re not the same person that you were before the tragedy.

But this must be seen for what it is, a blessing. The silver lining in an otherwise black hole of loss. See, some people only get to live one life, but some are given two. Perhaps, as we each navigate this world and our relationships, we can all see it as a new beginning, a second chance at life, each time we cycle round and round.

Whispers of the Wind

If I listen closely to the wind, I can hear him say, “I miss you. Don’t let your dreaming end. But my most important wish is that one day you love again.”

 “Hold everything in your hands lightly, otherwise it hurts when God pries your fingers open.”
