Grief does not go away because of Valentine's Day. Grief likes to celebrate all the holidays with me. Grief is co-dependent!!
Not only is it life altering, but very tiring. Your strength is used up! Remembering to breathe has returned to normal. My broken body gets out of bed, pretty easily. I get dressed and can drive a car, those normalcy's were gone in the acute stages of grief.
I returned to work, quickly after Ward's death. I knew my students would heal me. I knew that if I didn't move, I would remain in the fetal position. So I moved, and I continue to move.
The other day, I was feeling, a non-moving day coming on. A stomach bug was hovering and depression always lingers, waiting to pounce!!! Routinely I open my e-mail in the morning, this morning was no different. Yet it was!!!
A precious child, a former student, had sent me a Valentines letter. He is now in Korea. It was a Valentine from his heart, and it healed my wounded heart. His gift of magic chocolate, through his communication, helped me MOVE!!!
And Magic Chocolate has no calories!!!! LOVE,LOVE,LOVE!!!! being LOVED!!!!!
