Dance Of The Spirit. ACROSS THE VEIL: This Post Comes As a Direct Response To So Many Who Have Let Me Know That Someone Close To Them Recently Passed-Away.....Or, Are Struggling With a Loss That May Have Occurred Years Ago But Feels Like Yesterday. Three of My Closest Friends Lost Their Father Within Weeks of Each Other in Dec.....So Strange--Yea, This Hits Close To Home With Me Right Now. I Used To Be a Grief Counselor and I Also Know This To Be True: There are NO RULES for GRIEVING and There Is NO RIGHT Or WRONG Way to Do It. Its Important to Affirm That WHEREVER THERE IS LOVE, THERE IS A BRIDGE. Repeat that Truth to Yourself As Often As You Need To As An Act of SELF-COMFORT. Be prepared for emotional Waves that come when you least expect it. You could be standing in the middle of Target or someplace and the Tidal Wave hits without warning. If you need to, make your way to the restroom or your car until you can pull yourself together. If you need to, Go Home. Above All: Be Gentle With Yourself. “It is a curious thing, the death of a loved one. We all know that our time in this world is limited, and that eventually all of us will end up underneath some sheet, never to wake up. And yet it is always a surprise when it happens to someone we know. It is like walking up the stairs to your bedroom in the dark, and thinking there is one more stair than there is. Your foot falls down, through the air, and there is a sickly moment of dark surprise as you try and readjust the way you thought of things.” Lemony Snicket Peace Be With You Now and Always, Sandra Cline
