Maybe the person decorating early isn’t trying to rush the holidays.

Maybe they’re not skipping ahead or doing “too much.”

Maybe they just need a little light right now.
A little joy.

A little something to remind them that good days still exist.

Because sometimes, hanging up those twinkling lights isn’t about Christmas at all,
it’s about coping.

It’s about needing something to look forward to when life feels heavy.

So if someone’s already blasting Christmas songs or putting up their tree in October,
let them.

You never know what that little bit of joy is helping them hold onto.

If you’re missing someone you’ve lost today, I hope you can feel this reminder: The love you shared with them didn’t end.

It lives in your memories, in the stories you tell and in the pieces of them that shaped who you are.

They’re never truly far away the bond you have isn’t broken, just carried differently now. Be gentle with yourself.

Missing them means they mattered and that love will always remain.🤍

Just a reminder that no one’s day is made worse by a text that says “thinking about you and wanted you to know.”

No one’s day is made worse by a hug.

No one’s day is made worse by a surprise coffee.

No one’s day is made worse by a kind gesture or an honest compliment.
And no one’s day is made worse by hearing “I love you, I miss you, or I am proud of you.”

No one’s day is made worse by being tagged in a sweet post on FB.

When they come to mind, LET THEM KNOW. So often it’s because they needed a little message of love sent their way and what an honor to be the one to deliver that message, right?

Seriously.

LET THEM KNOW.

From:Sister, I am with you

“We need time to move through the pain of loss. We need to step into it, really to get to know it, in order to learn.”

Grief is not just a series of events, stages, or timelines.

Our society places enormous pressure on us to get over loss, to get through grief.

But how long do you grieve for a husband of fifty years, a teenager killed in a car accident, your child: a year? Five years? Forever? The loss happens in time, in fact in a moment, but its aftermath lasts a lifetime.
