Grief is a powerful teacher, albeit a harsh one!
When Grieving, Write on My Grief Journey
In the depths of grief, writing became my refuge, a place to pour out my heart
give voice to my pain and my hurt, and discover the strength within me
When we lost someone we love so dearly
It can be easy to feel like no one gets it or understands us
Because grief is a complex and sorrowful emotion
and writing about our grief journey is equally complicated
In our hearts and souls, we are all storytellers
It is part of the human condition to express ourselves
We imagine scenarios to help ourselves understand our griefs
As it can be a long ongoing journey and when we are in the middle of it
I lost my beautiful Mum so unexpectedly and so suddenly
on Tuesday 04 October 2022 the worst day of my entire existence
I had to write through my hurt and heartache by
focusing on what I experienced and pouring my pain into pages
I have been writing like a madwoman ever since
has everything I been writing good? Heck, no!
but it is personal, it is authentic, it is emotional and it is vulnerable
it has been written under the full crescendo of my deepest grief
That is how I write about my grief journey
Am I grateful I have been kept writing?
Yes! A million times yes
What about you?
I am a motherless daughter and an adult orphan, who loves passionately and grieves intensely, as I write and share about my personal grief journey with others, after I lost my darling Mum on 04 October 2022
to major stroke so suddely and so unexpectedly, with the hope that it might comfort, help and inspire people on their own journey.
"Mum, I carry your strength
with every step I take
on this new path "
