Grief and Grieving
The pain of grief is torture. A complete emptiness and a vast longing for that person you just can't explain. No one and nothing can fill that space. Ever.
You will cry and wish, pray for a miracle even, until you fall asleep from exhaustion. And then you wake up again, you will cry some more. Missing someone so much you feel their absence so deeply, it goes right down into your very bones, and through every vessel of your being. You're heart literally feels broken, your soul is tired, and it hurts. It hurts so damn much you don't feel like you can go on.
But then you think about that person, you think about what they would want for you. Happiness and a long life full of love and fulfilling your dreams. And you know that you can't give up, if not for yourself, for them.
You are unique for keeping their memories alive. All the special, personal moments you spent together, all the little memories you were given some precious time to make. That time doesn't seem long enough now. But no one can take those moments away. You are still here to share their stories. So talk about them, say their names proudly and smile. It will always hurt not having them here. But have faith you will meet each other again in a different life.
For now, just live. Live your life for the both of you. Live a life that would make them proud as they watch over you wherever they are now. And trust the signs that they are with you. Watching with a smile, protecting and guiding you, and giving you the strength to go on.
