Sometimes all of this self-reflection can be
painful.
We are in the final stretch of 31 posts over
31 days. These 31 days without a
theme. Messy grief could be a theme.
And I’m relieved that these 31 days are
almost over.
Writing these posts has been like poking a
wound.
And it was completely unintentional.
I didn’t set out to write about grief and
pain. And I certainly didn’t mean to
expose this vulnerability. Obviously,
this is what is on my heart.
Unfortunately, the end of the 31 days doesn’t
mean the end of these feelings.
That’s the thing about grief. One moment, I think I am ok, focused at work,
and it seems like a moment later, I am missing my mom. These feelings rise to the surface so quickly
at times and then return to the broken part of my heart where they came from.
There’s no predictability here.
I suppose that’s why this feels messy.
Messy and painful.
