Three springs ago a resident in our neighborhood near Harrison Elementary School gifted us with Iris bulbs. For two springs, no flowers emerged, only leaves. In fact, the plants didn't look healthy the first year, yet they hung on for dear life, it seemed. Now, look at how beautiful the flowers blossomed in the 3rd spring.

That's a metaphor for what grief can be like. When we first grieve the passing of a loved one, we may feel lifeless. It's hard to grow. The emotional pain controls us. We may be in a fog. Yet, as we continue the grief journey, we may have moments when life does return. Then, slowly, gently, we experience blossoming moments. It's like what C.S. Lewis wrote in his grief's journey, "There was no sudden, striking, and emotional transition...Like the warming of a room..., when you first notice, they have already been going on for some time." Life is changed, and in place of our pain, wonderful blossoms appear.
