Always Growing

This year has been very hard. I lost some very dear, loved ones and I am still grieving. I have been stuck in a place of wanting to go forward and also wanting to remain. It seems like the two have been parallel in time. In saying that, I have kept moving, growing, learning, creating, and exploring the complex world around and I have given myself a space and time to just be. I have stopped trying to answer all of the mysteries surrounding life and I have kept my thoughts and hurt inside.

I write today because it gives me a comfort to know that I am not the only person who is grieving, and if I can give just one person faith to know, seasons change. We are always growing whether we want to admit it, it is what we do. We grow through hurt, pain, grief, love, laughter, heartache, joy, anger, and all of the other emotions we have. It doesn’t mean we will understand all of the why’s, but we Will grow through those times and keep growing.

I have chosen to use writing, and educating, and joy to keep growing and in that I intern will work out my grief in my own way. So remember, when you meet a person, give them space to work out what they are feeling because we all need time. We are all growing!
