A dear friend reminded me why I continue to share my five year journey of grief. 
“Thank you for the grace-filled loving "permission" that you give to grieve... it is truly one of the greatest gifts I have ever received “
Grief does not end at the one year anniversary; it ebbs and flows. There are weeks when one believes they have triumphed and then a tsunami knocks them off their feet again.
The good news: we can always begin again.
