GRIEF SUCKS

TIME... one of the many words I disliked upon Chip's death eight years ago. It's easy to understand why...
— Time is defined as the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future, regarded as a whole. —
It has absolutely nothing to do with grief, yet, it has EVERYTHING to do with it. I was recently reminded how horribly sad grief is. My sweetheart has been gone for awhile now, yet sometimes it seems like only yesterday when I sat beside his body waiting for help. It's true, time does seem to soften the blow in that indescribable everyday pain.
Today, there are thousands of individuals experiencing their first time being thrown into the arena of a loved one's passing. Unexpectedly, I received an email from a young woman whose fiance' was murdered ... by a co-worker ... and he too was reaching out from the other side. My heart instantly went out to her not just because of our similar circumstances, but because of the pain I am certain she is feeling.
I used to say, "The word Grief doesn't come close to describing the devastation to my very being. There are no words to portray that kind of pain."
... GRIEF SUCKS!
