Wise words from an amazing doula heart 🩵

There is no D at the end of love when someone has died. We didn’t "loved" them, we love them. Still. Always. That love doesn’t vanish when their physical presence leaves this world; it simply shifts, deepens, and finds new ways to exist. You are allowed to say their name out loud. You are allowed to tell their stories, to share the memories that make you laugh or cry or both at once. You are allowed to carry them with you, because love like that doesn’t end, it evolves.

I give you permission to scream from the mountain tops that you love them and you always will. Love is not something that anyone can take from you. Death can’t silence it, time can’t erase it, and no one gets to tell you that you should stop speaking their name. In fact, I’m learning that sometimes, after someone dies, our love for them grows even stronger, more sacred, more present, more intentional.

I will honor the ones I love for the rest of my life, and I am proud of that. I am at peace with that. And I want you to be too. Because the truth is, love doesn’t die, it simply changes form, and continues to live in us.
