17 Nov 10 Things I Am Doing, Thinking, and Feeling to Re-center and Re-calibrate After the Loss of a Parent
- Spending time alone to remember
- Spending time with my siblings who I feel are the only people in the world to truly understand
- Collecting memories, both tangible and in my mind to hold onto forever and to pass down
- Talking to both of my parents as if they were still with me and telling them I love them, honor them, forgive them, cherish them always and forever, and making sure to express my deep gratitude
- Feeling sad and crying when I need to
- Being honest in admitting when I am not okay
- Thinking intensely of what I have learned
- Setting new goals and life missions based on the wisdom I have gained
- Contemplating what is most important in life
- Reflecting on how I wish to help my own children through this process.
