Grief Support

Many people think that if they stay busy, busy all the time after the death of their spouse they can outrun the grief. But it doesn’t happen that easy. You have to work at marching thru it, making choices. Choices that will take your life in a direction you can feel good about. When you arrive at this place, you will know it not by the smile on your face, which is good, too, but by a gladness and a sense of happiness in your heart. Yes, this does happen! “In three words, I can sum up everything I have learned about life... it goes on. (Robert Frost)

You have a choice... It is comfortable, even though miserable and lonely, to curl up and let the world go on without you.

Choose to make a new but different life. You owe this to your children, you owe it to your friends, to your family and to the wife/husband who died.  Most of all, you owe it to yourself.  Commit to living.  Let a Support group show you the way.
