Episode 168 - I Can't Avoid Grief Forever
Jul 10, 2019
As I post this, I am in St. Louis... at my mom's house... finally going through her things.
As I spent 13 hours in a car driving here, I had a lot of time to think about this process; how hard it might be and the emotions i would face as I tried to determine what I would keep for myself, what I might offer to others and what I woulkd just get red of entirely.
It was difficult when I first got started but I decided it would be easier if I could establish a closer connection to mom while I was here. So I decided to change the linen on her bed and sleep in her room. It has been a very calming experience over the last few days... very calming emotionally. It has definitely taken the edge of what as been and emotional roller coaster.
I have to also take time to thank my family and friends who have supported me through this process. I have not been the easiest person to reach or to talk to in fear of having to answer the question of when was I going to begin the process ofg cleaning out mom's house. They are a truly amazing group of people,
I have found that I can do what I con and when it becomes too much, just take a break until you can do more. Eventually you'll reach your goal.
Thank you for supporting me through this process.
