This is what grief is.
A hole ripped through the very fabric of your being.
The hole eventually heals along the jagged edges that remain. It may even shrink in size.
But that hole will always be there.
A piece of you always missing.
For where there is deep grief, there was great love.
Don’t be ashamed of your grief.
Don’t judge it.
Don’t suppress it.
Don’t rush it.
Rather, acknowledge it.
Lean into it.
Listen to it.
Feel it.
Sit with it.
Sit with the pain. And remember the love.
This is where the healing will begin.

That’s kind of how I felt when my brother died. I guess I loved him more than I thought I did.

It's a ragged edge and the hole will always be there.

I feel this shit in my tattered soul. I'd like to sit with my grief. The problem is in the last 5 years. I've lost 14 friends and coworkers (none to covid). 2 years ago my best friend of 23 years passed suddenly. Last October my mom lost her 5 year battle with dementia. And now my dad is in the hospital with 3 cancers and Parkinsons. So I'd like to sit with my grief. If life would give me a moment to rest.

Sending you strength and internet love from a random stranger; I just lost my aunt (who was a mother to me) to dementia and many friends this past year. Hope you’re holding up alright.
Remember the good.

I just finished putting the ingredients for fresh bread in my magic stir box. In a few hours, warm crusty bread yummm. Sammiches fix most things.
