Carrying my grief
is like having a broken rib
the very moment I forget
and find myself laughing...
is when I remember everything.

I'll echo Sorenbarrets comment here Shirley. Excellent analogy 👏
- Syd xo
Thank you dear Syd. 🌹
Teddy, this hit me hard. It's incredibly simple, yet it captures something so many people who've carried grief will recognize instantly. Those last two lines land with quiet force. Beautiful piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you my dear Tristan. 🌹
Oh God, this certainly hits hard….so much resonance my dear Teddy….
Dearest spills, thank you my dear friend. 🌹
So very true, sweet Teddy. Fantastic.
Thank you my dear Thomas. 🌹
some grief springs up at the oddest times and puts a pause to your happiness - but don't let it deter you - the pain will depart when given time...
One would always hope tha k you dearest NafisaSB 🌹
my wishes & blessings for health & happiness with you always...take care & enjoy each day as it comes

My dear NafisaSB sorry if I missed this message my friend, actually I was healed and it happened again, just this year he was someone young, this year so hard but I agree 💯 we move on and time truly makes a massive difference from this present time to the next. Thank you sweet friend. 💜
yes indeed - time is able to heal the wounds to some degree, and we remember the happier memories with the departed person more than mourning them...and life moves on...
have a good day - take care
I lost my father too, and my brother in law all at once my brother in law was 43, I will heal it is the circle of life I know all too well, unfortunately we all have our own path and there are no rules. 🌹
I can empathize as I too lost my mom and favorite sister in law within a few months of each other and both also shared a deep bond. This was 3 years back but we think of them often but now with good memories of them as my sis in law was a fantastic mimic and also life and soul of the family after my mom. So think of the happy times you shared with them and you will feel lighter ✌️💐
