A couple of days ago I was listening to some music that I grew up with. One was a collection I made of some of the 45's I had plus some I didn't. The other was a collection of 45's one of my friends put together many years ago. Songs I grew up with. Songs maybe his older siblings listened to since my friend is younger than me. Anyhoo one those songs is a classic that can get you rockin'...

Last week was my final session with the grief counselor. I knew the time had come. I'm doing well. Grief is a journey. I can't tell you how great it was to have the guidance of the counselor. Everyone grieves in their own way. I am glad I had a chance to see a counselor. Some people never do. The grief counselor wasn't my only help. Friends and family too helped me through this long process. Some people never recover. The key is looking forward. The life you knew is gone so you must find a new way to be you. I'm lucky, I have found the way to move forward. It doesn't mean I will lose my memories or have some sad days. To live there is a way forward.

I often wonder if it would have helped my siblings and myself if we had had some counseling after my mom died. Oh well, that was a LONG time ago and nothing to do about it now. And thinking about it, us kids did ok, but my dad should have had some counseling because it took him way too many years to get right after that.
ReplyDeleteAt any rate, I am glad you got to see a counselor and that it did help you. I know your lady would want you to go on living and to find peace and happiness. Yes, you will always have memories, but as I have learned, focus on the GOOD memories and that keeps her alive in your heart and with you always. 💖 Will listen to the song now 🙂
Yes I believe some counseling would have helped your family. There was some available I'm sure but probably not as much as today. I got lucky and it was offered to me right away.
DeleteYou are so right. I do focus on the good memories. And there are many. (-:
I hope you remember the song, still one that is nice to listen to. (-:
