Somewhere along the way, grief gets a timeline attached to it that was never real. A few weeks, a few months, and suddenly people expect you to be “back to normal.”
But grief doesn’t work like that, and you were never supposed to carry it on someone else’s schedule.
You can have a good day and still miss them.
You can laugh and still love them just as much.
A hard wave months or years later doesn’t mean
you’re starting over, it means you’re still human,
still loving someone who’s gone.
You don’t owe anyone an explanation for why today is heavier than yesterday. And you don’t have to carry any of it by yourself.
I’m here. Swipe through, and if any of this is where you are today, know that support is allowed too.
