Grief as a Process

I just read another wonderful article at www.widowquest.com regarding about reducing stress at times of grieving. Some of us take longer than others to figure out the grief process. As we know, it’s an individual journey, fraught with uncertainty and unknown paths and opportunities. We can fall down and keep feeling sorry for ourselves, or pick ourselves up and try to drag ourselves forward. It’s never easy, no matter how you travel or finally get there…there is no end to it, we just learn to adjust, to live, to love again. I’ve found for myself going deeply into the despair and pain, feeling it, looking at it, letting it have its way for a short time, then letting it go, does me the best good. Again, it’s all individual.
