I think us young people who have loved and lost, don’t give ourselves enough credit for continuing to love. Losing someone so special in the years when you’re trying to figure out who you are and where you want to go is truly world-haulting. Who would have ever thought that loss this deep would ever be part of the plan?
Acknowledge your pain, your loss but most of all your growth.
You are choosing to keep going, even when it hurts the most. Although some days your grief may stop you dead in your tracks, you still choose to live and to love. Never underestimate what you have been through and are still going through.. loss isn’t only in one moment but in the form of many throughout your lifetime.
Be kind and gentle with yourself, grieving is hard.
