YOU’RE MY ANGEL – PART 1

Posted on January 19, 2013 by Judy

You are my angel in the sky, like a butterfly
you flew away and couldn’t stay
we had to say goodbye
love can never die
so you must know I miss you so
my angel in the sky Continue reading →

Was I really helping other people with my optimism or bringing myself back into my former sad world? I’ve written many times that the amputation of my soul was a permanent condition. And I’ve also said that grief is not recoverable. Such a contradiction to announce that I have healed!

Believe it or not, although time lends some anesthesia to the gut-wrenching pain – for those that succumb to grief it is too late. Grief actually wrecks lives and destroys a persons’ health over time. Healing from grief is torturous hard work. Most people don’t believe they will heal and I was one of those people. Healing isn’t about fixing anything so that’s it goes back to how it was. There are scars forever. And nothing heals when it festers either.
