Grief isn’t something we “get over.”
It’s something we learn to live with — a quiet companion that reshapes our days and sits in the spaces where love used to be loud.
Some days it feels like a heavy storm, sharp and impossible to ignore. Other days it softens into a gentle ache, a reminder of how deeply we loved and how deeply we were changed.
Grief has no timeline.
No finish line.
No handbook.
It asks for patience, for grace, for room to breathe. It asks us to honor our feelings even when they don’t make sense. And it teaches us — slowly, painfully, beautifully — that healing isn’t forgetting. Healing is remembering with less fear, less guilt, and more love.
If you’re grieving, you’re not doing it wrong.
You’re just doing it your way.
And that is enough.
Be gentle with yourself today.
Your heart is carrying so much.
