my grandma died today
the trees are still swaying
i still feel the breeze on the back of my neck
my dad still smiles
people still roam the streets
talking, reading, singing, driving
people say when someone close to you dies it feels like the world stops moving
am i a bad person because
the clouds are still unhurried
and i still feel the sun on my skin
my house still stands
my room just how i left it
the water still flows down the river of my hometown
am i a bad person
because i kept walking?

stay strong
Absolutely not, you are not a bad person,
It shows just how strong u are to have the strength to keeping moving forward and pressing on,
There will be a time when it sets in and you will feel broken, but you need to let yourself grieve in order to begin healing!
Stay strong and remember that because she died, she still lives on in your heart
I'm so sorry about your grandma,
there will be a day i reminiscence about the days i spent with her and the conversations we had but i’ll look back to those moments in awe instead of pain. thank you so much for this ❤️
That's a excellent frame of mind my dear, excellent

My deepest condolences on the loss of your grandmother! As a grandmother myself, I would want my grandchildren to keep on walking and enjoying life after I’m gone! You are not a bad person at all. Keep living your life as fully as possible. That’s how you can best honor your grandmother!
Love,
~Beth
