In Times of Grief...
Spouses, families, and other
soulmates - those of you
are usually the people,
in times of loss,
who experience grief with
more intensity, more passion,
more feelings, more emotions.
You go through moments
(sometimes days) of shock,
moments of anger and depression,
moments when you doubt
and ask, Why, why, why?
Finally, you will arrive at
some level of acceptance.
It often takes three months
to three years or longer,
but you will come to grips
with the loss in your own way,
on your own time,
through your own understanding.
Time of feelings and insights
will hit you when you least expect it -
like seeing a dandelion or a seashell,
walking on the beach,
sitting by a campfire,
riding a bicycle,
eating a piece of fudge,
watching a movie,
holding a child,
dancing and singing in the kitchen
while stirring macaroni and cheese.
Something - some event, some word, some sound,
some food, some clothing, some place,
some picture - will trigger a memory, and
you will feel the intense sadness,
separation and loss.
You will also feel the warmth
of a moment at that time
when the loved one is revisiting you.
Time will stand still, and
you will know that person is present.
Savor and embrace those moments dearly.
They are precious and so meaningful.
They are the life of the one
who has departed.
