The holidays can hold more than one feeling at a time.
Joy and grief often sit side by side — and that’s okay. You may feel moments of connection and celebration, while also noticing sadness, longing, or reminders of what’s changed. None of these feelings cancel the others out.
Holding space for both is an act of self-compassion. You don’t have to force cheer, rush healing, or explain your experience to anyone. There is room for your full emotional landscape this season.
Be gentle with yourself. However this season feels is valid. 🤍
