Grief Brings You Back To Me
Grief doesn’t feel like a gift until one day it does. Grief becomes the link that allows us to hold our memories tight, embrace the lessons learned, and move forward without losing our connection to those who have impacted our lives. Learning to embrace our grief and not fight it softens our pain until one day we find ourselves smiling as we remember a cherished one. Grief finds us all where we’re at and becomes the gift that bridges our path to the future.
