You Don't Get Over It

~ You Just Get Through It

You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.

“You don’t get over it, you just get through it...

You don’t get by it, because you can’t get around it...

It does not get better, It just gets different...

Everyday grief puts on a new face.”

~~~~~

Grief is a tidal wave that overtakes you,

Smashes down upon you with unimaginable force,

Sweeps you up into its darkness,

Where you tumble and crash against unidentifiable surfaces,

Only to be thrown out on an unknown beach, bruised, reshaped...

Grief will make a new person out of you,

If it doesn't kill you in the making...

This bears repeating…

~ "Do not judge the bereaved mother. She comes in many forms. She is breathing, but she is dying. She may look young, but inside she has become ancient. She smiles, but her heart sobs. She walks, she talks, she cooks, she cleans, she works, she IS but she IS NOT, all at once. She is here, but part of her is elsewhere for eternity." ~

~♥~ "Cleanse yourself with laughter and with tears. Let tears take out all the agony that is hidden inside you, and let laughter ignite your contagious joy. Many people don't realize the great curing effects of good laugh and a good cry.

"Crying is a great way to (relieve) emotional pain in your life. A lot of us save crying for extremely emotionally sensitive times, such as when (a) close loved one dies, or during a bad break-up. During times like these every tear that falls down our face is an ounce of pain leaving the body. Crying is one of the greatest coping mechanisms that we have as a human beings.

"It is important to drain our sorrows out with tears and re-ignite the flame of joy in your / our life by laughing as much as possible during the most trying times." ~♥~

Remember the life and love that touched you, enriched you, blessed you, and changed you for all eternity. This life is so much bigger than the death. If you are struggling with images of a painful, prolonged, or traumatic and sudden end, keep turning your attention to the life that made your life brighter and sweeter. Life and love are always bigger than death.
