Unique Grief

“And humans have to grieve, because grieving is about being honest that the things taken from us were special and precious and important. Human life has a lot of suffering and pain in it because it also has a lot of love and hope in it, and nothing lasts forever. When things don’t go the way we want them too, and we lose the people or the things that were dear to us, it’s a grave dishonour to ourselves—and that which we loved—to pretend they didn’t matter.” Jonathan Puddle

Give yourself permission to grieve your way for your loss.
It. Is. O. K.

"Today there will be someone missing at the gathering

Today there will be an empty seat at the table

Today there will be someone that won’t walk through that door

Today there will be someone trying their best to make a recipe that will never taste the same because the person they used to make it with isn’t here

Today there will be memories shared from holidays of the past because some won’t be there to make new memories

Today there will laughs and tears served up with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy

Today there will be “I wish they were here” and “today is hard without you here” spoken out loud and thought in silence

Today there will be someone that you can’t call and ask if they are coming over

Today there will be a lot of broken hearts and people sitting at your table who are hurting and missing someone

Today there will be a lot of I love you’s

Today there will be a lot of pictures being taken

Today there will be someone’s name spoken out loud that has been in Heaven for years

Because today there will be a lot of people balancing grief with a thankful heart"

9/11 Day was the vision of the families who lost loved ones on 9/11. Today we honor those who ran into the destruction to serve others and their family members, those who showed up to help rebuild communities and unite the country’s spirit, and those who continue to serve to protect our country, our communities, and our people.
