Articulating grief ….

Articulating grief ….

Wow! That’s a task is it not 🤔

Each of us use different phrases … some are looking in on another persons grief, some are living & flowing with their grief… imagination & reality are subtly different, meaning words used to articulate will be different. Fairly obvious I guess, although likely not articulated well.

Many aspects of life are mysterious, impossible to understand, and something we can’t live without.

From each viewing point .. there is movement, flow & depth.

Use your words to articulate grief … it’s personal. Accept the words can be replaced, substituted, rearranged …

The point is … attempting to articulate ..

A feeling, a way of life, an addition to life that arrives, settles, surprises & supports … that will not leave … is tough.

Understanding that grief doesn’t have a description on the package… helps in exploring the mystery. We don’t need to understand fully … why should we ?

If living in it or observing .. flow with it, taking in the darkness, the beauty & the subtle reflections.

Grief ….

Allow yourself to be absorbed, mysteriously.

The waters invite us to swim, not sink.
