i keep trying

I keep trying to sit with my grief. To let the process happen. But I am in too much pain. I can't take it. I can't stop crying. I have to get back to work. I don't know how to go on with the rest of my life.

Grieving takes on so many different faces. It doesn't always come in the way you hope or in the time you want it to. Sometimes it's hard to just "be" with the grief. But trying to force it, or put time limits on it can sometimes make it more difficult for you.

Let the tears fall.....they are cleansing in nature...they are a release. If you are spritiual or religious, then pray for help with your pain. Do you have a pastor you can speak with? If you have someone who can sit quietly with you for awhile....listening or just plain handing you a tissue now and again....that would be good too.

Maybe you can go back to work on a part time basis for a week or so? Maybe having a little something to do will help you move on in your grief and in your life. I know it's hard to imagine getting up to do anything right now, but sometimes it's what we need to do.

ECHOES, be gentle with yourself dear. Time always plays a role in things like this.....as does good self care. Please know that I'm thinking of you and sending out hope and strength to you.
