The missing. It's always there.

Some days it's quietly humming in the background of a life that now feels so different and is marked by a void. And some days it's so loud it brings distraction and is hard to ignore.

The missing is one of the hardest things to carry when it comes to loss and grief. It shows up when you would expect it to and it shows up in the most ordinary moments during the day.

It shows up when all is calm and quiet. It shows up when life is filled with chaos. It shows up during the milestones we all experience in life including the holidays.

You will always miss your loved ones and you will miss them in everything they will never get to experience or see.

And you will miss yourself. The version of YOU that went missing the day your loved one took their last breath. You will miss the life you lived before when they were part of it and here. You will miss the life you had dreamed of and the way life was "supposed" to be.

The heartbreaking truth is you will miss them forever and the missing never completely stops. But the missing is also a reflection of how much you love and care about someone. It represents just how much someone mattered and perhaps that's the way it's supposed to be.

If you are missing someone today, I'm wrapping you in a big hug filled with compassion and love. The missing may be hard but when you are missing your loved ones send them love and light. Say their name. Talk to them. Write them a letter. Share their story. Talk about them and hold their memories close.

With love - michele

It is totally acceptable to cry yourself to sleep. Grief is messy. It comes in waves.

It helps to find others who understand what you are going through.

Thank you Zoe Clark-Coates
