💔

I thought of you today.

Actually you cross my mind too many times to count.

But some days are different.

Today my grief is louder….which makes me uncomfortable because grief is that. Uncomfortable.
Hurting.
Relentlessly pointing out that you are no longer here. I don’t want to feel the pain.

So I ran from it.

Grief caught up to me. It always does.

So I did something different.
I sat with it.
Allowed it to wash over me.
The memories. The inside jokes we shared. The last time I held your hand…

In went the memories. So many of them. Good and bad.
Out went the tears… A release.

And deep sobs..

Almost deep enough to touch the empty space I hold for you..

But you know what happened in that space I allowed open for the grief to enter in?

I felt close to you.

I thought of you today. But instead of rapidly distracting myself from the thoughts…

I invited you in. I invited grief in.

Because grief and my love for you are actually the same. Intertwined.

And with that thought… grief became less frightening.

So I will allow you to catch up to me more often.

And stay a while.
