What to do when you're losing a loved one

Heasy Life

Life can be really heavy sometimes. We resist the sadness because we don't want it to consume us but grief is a part of life. Let's struggle and heal together as a community and lift each other up when times are tough. I love you all so much. I hope this reaches someone today and let's them know that they are not alone. // Show notes // It’s okay to allow yourself to feel and be sad and angry. It’s so easy for us to reject discomfort. We resist so strongly to convince ourselves that we are okay because we’re scared. Scared of what will come out or even more scared of what we will hold in. I think the hardest thing for me and most people in this moment is to not question why. I feel torn between my knowledge of the fraility of life and the undeniable peace of knowing she (my mema) is going home to Jesus. "And the peace of God, that peace which reassures the heart, that peace which transcends all understanding, that peace which stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus is yours.” - Philippians 4:7 “Grief is in two parts, the first is loss, the second is the remaking of life.” - Anne Roiphe I pray over all of the loved ones lost to you. I pray that their memory be a reminder to live life to the fullest. To love, be fearless and leave nothing left on the table. Lean into this community as a place for vulnerability and strength. Let’s help each other grow and heal. ? by @arnelh
