The Journey of Grief
Grief isn’t something we can ‘get over’ or ‘go around’; it’s something that we move through, which is why it’s helpful to think of it as a journey.
Throughout the course, we learn to walk alongside the river of our unique experience of grief and loss.
Our river sometimes swells after a heavy rain pour, and then returns to a slow flow. Sometimes it has many curves and currents, and then straightens up, continuing its flow downhill, steady and calm.
Whatever our river looks and feels like, we can either resist and struggle against it, or we can choose to flow with it… to walk alongside it.
We have a choice, we always do.
