FROM GRIEF TO GRIEF

As pessimistic as that sounds, sometimes I think this is what life is made of.

These are the places we find our center.

These are the places that we find what really matters.

We find perspective.

And although we are angry and upset and hurting and pissed off and feel like life is so unfair, maybe we’re not seeing what grief is really offering us.

Maybe we’re not seeing His perfect plan, that may or may not, in this lifetime, bring us an abundance of joy, peace, happiness or contentedness.

I get so mad at this world and at the same time…

after jumping from grief to grief, I’m so thankful that he has kept me above the water…

where the crickets are chirping, where I can hear the water bubbling, I can see the sunshine, I can find sustenance, I can breathe in the air, I can see his glorious creation and ultimately be reminded how very blessed I am.

Grief is life.

Shall we embrace it?
