Hi En, I am here for you. I am based in Australia 🐨. When we lose a valued relative, life seems so unfair. Grief is as natural as breathing though it doesn't seem that way when we are in the middle of it.

One grandmother 👵left this earth when I was 18 and I never got to meet her husband. The other grandparents died in World War 2. When my dad dies our little family will be so much smaller. I am putting together the family history to honour those gone before to keep busy during weekends. If I could have met the grannies, the story would be more interesting.

For the time being, good bye from me

Do you do anything for her? Them?

Maybe today!

Walk for them.

Or take a 30 second break at high noon to just ground and focus on them only!

Celebrate them and who they are daily! (In little ways)

Today I will organize and do aromatherapy things but maybe I will wear my grandmother's jewelry ♡

Hi En, how long ago did you lose your grandma? ... I see august of last year in your response. It hurts I know. My grandparents left decades ago and my parents ten years ago. It hurts and it hurts for a while but it does get better. But after nearly a year things should hopefully be improving a little. There is no timeline. Do you have anyone you can talk about this with who is in the same circumstance? A brother or a cousin or parent? Have you read up on grief? If you google stages of grief there are good sites which discuss the process. They may or may not help but I find understanding any topic makes it easier.

Ten years after my parents passed most of the sadness has been filled with good memories but that didn't happen over night.
