Grief

mourning, loss

It is but a mere glimpse of nothingness hidden away deep within the chambers of your mourning, in the red clovers birthing lost illusion.

Grief is the uncomfortable dance between feeling everything and feeling nothing. It isn’t exclusive to losing someone. Grief can manifest when you feel like a failure or when you have regret. It can appear when you feel overwhelmed or when you feel guilty. It can leave you feeling it all and then feeling nothing, or even feeling both at the same time.

Likewise, we can be so lost in our grief that we forget to live. We mourn for things that have long since slipped through our fingers. We find ourselves in a sort of limbo, living half dead. This is what can happen when you spend too much time searching for and missing what you’ve lost and forgetting to be grateful for what’s left behind.

Pulling Grief can mean you have a lack of satisfaction about where you are in life, what you have or perhaps, more appropriate, what you don’t have. You’re putting too much of your focus on what is missing and have cut off the rest of the world. There are still people and opportunities for you if you will only lift your head and take a look around.

Life still goes on when you’ve suffered a loss. Mourn for the things you wanted and didn’t get or had and lost but be sure to keep going. The universe never takes something away without giving you something to take its place.

Grief is a warning in reverse. You are about to lose something you love though you know it has run its course, even if it seems unexpected. Things have reached their natural end and although painful, it’s time to let it go.
