What a perfect way to express this — it explains why I quickly recoiled from the online grief groups I found after my husband died. I didn't expect a happy-face bandaid but I certainly wanted to heal and move forward. That didn't at all seem to be the goal of so many others on those forums.
My grief is lifting after 11 months because I found a group that helps grieving parents become "shining light"parents for those to come next. I never expected this process to take me back to the origins of the universe, the key to consciousness, fractals and patterns in all of nature, and the belief that there is no death. I feel like I'm back in graduate school, but without the pressure of deadlines and tests. So much to read- -which is what I do best. My son was also curious and open-minded, but now he guides me. I would not have reached this stage of grief processing if I had not found Helping Parents Heal.
I love this analogy daughter dearest. It sounds like you're approaching the light of freedom at the end of the tunnel. Keep walking towards that and find yourself ultimately on a whole new journey, one of your own choosing. Only look back at your sweetest memories and remember "butterflies are free". 💜🦋

Grief can become a dam when the river needs to keep flowing. Good for you!
