First, sorry for your loss.
Thank you for sharing how you handle grief. It looks like you've had your share. Everyone has their way of coping and good for you for finding a way that works and allows you to move on.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on grief. Your words have touched me deeply, and I am grateful for your insights and wisdom. Coping with loss has always been challenging, but your story has reminded me that I must move forward and actively engage with life. Once again, I greatly appreciate you opening up about your experience. I will hold onto your words, carrying them close to my heart as I navigate my journey through grief.
Best Regards.

This piece, The Stages of Grief, sums up a lot of your current negative happenings that you have to survive. Sorry and glad your husband survived and then you left him. More survival ahead.

I believe you told the story of everyone's grief, in this essay. We all go through these stages, asking why? blaming ourselves, wondering what the meaning of life is, when it comes up against death. There's the cleansing that we try to do, the escapism, the throwing oneself into the chores of life going on and the caring of the person (or animal) that depends on us. In the end, I think it's the caring for the person or animal that depends on us that gives our life the meaning to carry on. estory

We all deal with grief in varied ways. Writing about it is one way for sure. And when writing it in a public format as FS, it shows you are not afraid of the grief and are not hiding behind it or from it. That to me shows courage, and I applaud you for this post.
Now go out and plan that good vacation. I remember reading that you take one at Christmas, correct?
Thank you for sharing and have a great day,
John

I can relate to where you are coming from.
It doesn't happen overbite grief is roughin any language.we eventually come to the conclusion we must move on and become usuful to the world and ourselves. It takes time but we gasp hold and put ourselves back up back into the living.

Thank you for sharing your stages of grief with us. I am praying for you. We all have our own version of getting through grief. Prayer does help.

So sad but really resonating with many I'm sure. Nice work here. Hindsight in the "what ifs - should haves" etc. is only good if it can change the perspective to view it in the positive I'm afraid. We are a work in progress! May we all find peace in writing. Have a great day.

Sounds like you are emotionally well to me. We must grieve, if we do not we die inside ourselves. We must release our emotions regularly in joy, pain, anger, etc. If not they build up and can overtake us. So, dance, clean, travel, go somewhere out of the way, and scream your bloody head off. You were brave to share this.thank you.Karen

I am upset right now. A man named Ben Thorne wrote me two notes screaming at me for not giving him a six and ruining his reputation. Is he mental?
