Stability or Disaster?
Estimated reading time: 0 minutes, 33 secondsToday, my grief feels like it will either stay stable or reoccur with a vengeance. If there is a grief eruption, will I be consumed by the flames? I prefer a stable environment to sail to the Community of Love across the open waters. Flames would stop the forward progress while it consumed me.
Walking, reading, and writing have helped me avoid the pain of failure. Now, I am being called on to engage more directly with others in grief and as a group facilitator.
Love never dies; it only grows stronger.
If grief has made me a better person, it's because God gave me the ability to listen, embrace, and move forward into the future. Although I miss Jan dearly, I am committed to living with courage, honoring her memory, and being my best father, grandfather, friend, and neighbor.
