Growing Around Grief
When you’re the one grieving, well-meaning comments and offers of support can provide comfort. One phrase that is hard to hear for most dealing with grief is that “time heals”.
For the team members here at Holdmine, who both suddenly lost very significant people in their lives, time doesn’t heal, the loss is always felt, some days deeper than others. This image sums it up nicely – we grow, our lives move forward with time, we add new experiences, new people, and we evolve too.
Grief changes us, and so does time, so it’s not really that it heals, it’s more that we grow in new ways, add more into our world, and carry our grief with us always.
