Journey

Grief is a journey nobody wants to be on and it's not talked about enough. It's taboo!! It's scary!! It's contagious!! Contagious? Well, I feel like people treat grief as a disease that if talked about, it can be caught. Sounds rather ridiculous, doesn't it? As ridiculous as it sounds, how do you treat people who have lost somebody so dear? Do you just want them shut up because it makes you uncomfortable or do you open your heart and ears to listen. Death is something we ALL have to face. It's painful and can shake you to your core. Actually, let me put this out there....I'm not a fan of the word death or die. Death is so final for our soul. For me, it's a transition back to home. With that being said, I believe, with every piece of my being, that the veil is thin and love never ends. I believe we will reunite with our loved ones. 

I have no idea where I am going with this page, this journey. I have no idea how often I will write. I guess when I feel my spirit needs the outlet and my soul is overflowing with words that need to escape. What I do know is this my journey. My journey, NOT yours. Read that last sentence again because, beautiful soul, you have your own journey to walk. These are my thoughts, my feelings, and my writings. They may resonate and you may come back to walk and share some of my path with me. Or, you may not come back and this may just be a crossroad where we say "hi and safe travels, my friend, be blessed". Either way is just fine. You have to find your way and your peace. We aren't born with a rule book and we don't transition with one either.
