i would feel moments of sad over the months. but just pockets. i thought of her often. but just kept going on. and didnt feel the grief like i thought i should. 15 yrs later, and i think about my behavior during that time. i tell myself, we all experience it differently. it does not mean we love more or less. there is no right way.

i imagine in the future there will be moments where you cry, or feel sad, and then go one. i think you are perfectly fine.

hug yourself in love and allow you to be. you have nothing to apologize for. more to you, to remember and feel and embrace the good times.

i think the reason my moms death was so easy on me is all my life i loved and respected her. we talked often and always. there was NOTHING left unsaid.
