GRIEF

Darkness everywhere, emptiness, loneliness, pain--both
Physical and emotional.  Numbness, denial, anger,
Frustration, sobbing, wish you'd had more time with the
One gone.  Depression, floundering with decisions because
Your brain is foggy.  Missing the little things.  If you have kids--
How to be a good single parent, how to help your kids through
This, they're hurting too and may be too young to understand.
Don't shut down.  Don't blame God.  Don't be upset when people
Go on with their lives when you feel yours has stopped.  Talk about
What happened and how you feel, don't snap at people, don't go on
And on--but don't try to keep it all in, it won't bring your loved one
Back--and it can be detrimental to your health.  Always remember
God is there and ready to guide and comfort you.  ALWAYS SAY
A PRAYER.
