Grief Renewed #writebravely
The sun’s shining like every other day. At night, the moon is out in its full glory and see, not a single star is missing in the sky.
The world has not darkened because of your grief and isn’t affected by your pain.
You will feel numb and empty and even disconnected, but you have to learn to renew yourself.
No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true.
You must find yourself again, though you will never be the same and you wouldn’t want to be so too.

You must find yourself again..such powerful words. Yes,, life doesn’t stop just because someone is grieving. One must learn to get up and gear up. Life welcomes those who embrace it with open arms..

Re-invent yourself. In the process, you will lose few things but it’s ok. Don’t turn back and be sad. Keep looking ahead and be strong.
Lovely, Shilpa.

Life goes on and grief does too. There’s nothing like time to make things better . Loved the creative combination of both the prompts
July 4, 2018 10:28 pm|
Yes, that’s the sad reality… life goes on. True, we believe that with time things get better, but actually with time we learn how to live with the grief and pain.
Thank you Sunita, glad you liked this attempt!

After a setback, we surely get back to life but yes the things are not the same, neither do we want them to be. You are so perfect in giving your views a thoughtful description.
