Don’t Let Grief Eat From The Inside

Grief although such a natural emotion – one that will happen to all of us at some time during our life - it can cause such unnatural emotions and changes to our bodies and minds.
It is strange, grief feels uncontrollable and yet if we let grief control us, then we can potentially rot inside our soul.
I believe that we need to allow the grief to flow….but that is us allowing ourselves so we are in control!….then we need to find the strength to turn the grief into positive change. If we let go emotionally and let grief take hold then we change for the worse. My hope is that
Bereavement is harsh, death is cold but if we learn about ourselves during that time then we can come out of the tunnel of grieving a better person. We can come out understanding love, understanding ourselves, understanding humanity, understanding the need to empathize…but most of all…
We learn to be grateful for all the things we have, rather than down about the material things that we don’t have and often don’t need.
Grief can eat from inside, but there is two things that act as an anitbiotic to it….a smile and a hug
