IT’S A HEART THING

Healing grief is not a head thing.

Healing grief is a heart thing.

And when the heart speaks

to you

in silence

it says

I know darkness.

Deep

all-encompassing

endless

darkness

so I will be light

for the next person.

I know loneliness.

Even in (especially in)

a room full of people

so I will be friend

for the next person.

I know terror.

Indescribable

inexplicable

terror

so I will be comfort

for the next person.

And I know despair.

Paralyzing

can’t-get-out-of-bed

life is too dark

despair

so I will be hope

for the next person.

Grief is the teacher.

The life-giving

heart-expanding

teacher.

Grief is the teacher

when you choose to say yes

to life

to love

to your beloved,

to your very self.

And healing grief is a heart thing.
