Grief
I wish there were words I could reach up to pluck out of the air to describe certain times in life; pre-arranged phrases one could fish for in a pond or giant glass bowl, to use to spell out the tangled emotions which often pile up. There are days when it all feels complex and overwhelming, full of painful memories mixed with beautiful recollections and sweet images. Maybe i just put off letting myself be sad when things happen, trying to stay focused and get through.....maybe we all do that to some extent, but one day an anniversary date will surface and it feels like the world falls down with the scope of emotions and bitter sense of loss.
Exhausting.
Draining.
Necessary.
Necessary because until we lessen our grief by unloading and setting sadness free, we don't necessarily release it. And to let things go is an essential part of healing and restoring ourselves.
