Do Not Dismiss My Grief

February 12, 2023

Grief should never be taken lightly. It can shape us and help us understand our place in the world, but it’s also an important part of healing that shouldn’t be ignored or looked over.

This grief is mine to treat how I see fit. Please do not try to correct me or change the way I am grieving. My grief belongs entirely to me, and what I make of it, is my business and mine alone

Grieving is a deeply personal journey – my pain, and what I make of it, ultimately holds its own special purpose. Although well-meant advice may be offered with care by loved ones during this time, at the end of the day only I can take control over how to best cope through sorrows unknown.
