Rawness of grief….

Uncategorized 1 Minute

My daughter dreamed of her brother last night and the pain of remembering he is gone this morning has pulled her down that slippery slope of grief. It is always there but some days it is so much deeper and raw.

The gray clouds today match the somber minutes in remembering him. He would hate that we are sad. It just wasn’t who he was….laughter, smiles and endless jokes. There were days that the smiles and jokes were there to cover his pains from loss as well. For the most part he was a happy guy wanting everyone to be happy.

Even on the gray of today I will hold dear in my heart the sweet sweet boy my child was. I will remember in this rawness what he wanted everyone to feel and be…pure joy!

This journey has its sadness along the way but also has joy. The remainder of this day I will choose the joy in holding him close in my soul.,..he is here with us!!💔💔❤️❤️❤️

My profession is an Interior Designer and Artist. My passion is my family and friends of whom without…life would hold zero meaning! Growing up in a small southern town life was definitely sheltered from the outside world. As an adult I very quickly began to understand that life’s journey is complicated and not always pleasant. These are the ponderings of my heart since the loss of my sweet son, Jonathan. Sometimes deep and sometimes very dark they are from my soul’s depths to somehow let others know they are not alone in the dark nights of the soul. These are the reflections on my life’s journey. Prayerfully I hope they help any hurting heart.
