Let yourself feel some happiness today. Allow yourself to smile. You need to feel some joy to help you balance the pain you are working through right now.

It can be surprising, even shocking, that others who had a relationship with the person you lost are grieving so differently. The fact that they are crying more than you, talking less, seem so contented, or any other difference is hard to understand.

The grieving process is hugely different among us all, even when we are working through the loss of the same person. One way is not better or worse than another...it is simply different. At times, trying to talk with someone whose process does not match your own might not be helpful. Instead, you may want to turn to someone who understands and appreciates your grieving process.

Our condolences to the family and friends of Micha. May the memories of her love give you peace at this difficultl time.

You have to forgive yourself for all of the things you wish you'd done differently in your relationship with your loved one. If you had died first, he/she would have been facing this struggle instead. Would you want that? Forgive yourself so you can heal. Living your life is a gift to be treasured. Don't allow yourself to wallow in regret. Be the best person you can today to show you have learned from your past mistakes.

When grief is your every day, it's hard to imagine not having that weight on your shoulders. It's hard to fathom that there is even the possibility of a life without it. However, as it fades and your hope builds of a life free of that constant sorrow, know that there will be flare-ups. There will be a little reminder that brings it all flooding back.

Your process of grief is not following anyone else's timetable. It may take you two years to feel like someone else does in two months. Think of when you learned to walk or learned to read or learned to drive. Everyone's timetable is different for every part of life. Grieving is no different. Be patient with your heart. You will grieve as you need to for as long as you need to do so.

Grief sends us into survival mode: we do the bare minimum to exist because the majority of our energy is directed towards grieving. Do not spend time worrying about the details of your life that you may have neglected during the early days of your grief. Instead, choose one thing today that helps you feel more connected to your old life and do it.

We are filled with such emotions about the person we lost and the relationship we lost. The feelings are so strong that we have to let them go by crying. Never feel shame in that.

Grief can consume you body and soul. The overwhelming stress can impact your health, especially in the areas of eating and sleeping. If you have tried to eat an appropriate number of calories per day - not too many or too few - and been physically active, that can help. If you are still struggling with these areas, you should make an appointment to see your doctor. Don't be afraid to talk to a professional to protect your health during this difficult time.

Some days you may wish that the rest of the world could match the way you are feeling inside. It almost seems wrong that life goes on all around you when your world still seems to be upside-down. It's hard to believe today, but there will come a time when you are grateful that the world is ready and waiting to take you back.

You need to take the time you need to grieve. While some might see it as almost a luxury, it is actually a necessity for your physical and emotional health.

People may be asking you what they can do to help. While well-intentioned, that question can feel overwhelming. You might want to reply with a comment like, "Thank you so much for asking. This has been so tough for me...I don't even know what I need. It would be great if I could call you if I need something later." That way you acknowledge the person's offer and keep the door open in case you realize later that you could use the help.

After all of the rituals surrounding the death of your loved one were over, and the tasks that you inevitably had to do afterwards were completed, you may have felt another wave of loss. Now what should you do? You could put your emotions on auto-pilot when there were specific things to be done, but the future may now seem to be looming like an overwhelming burden. Make a task list that you can accomplish within the next month. Include easy tasks and those that may require more effort. Outlining what you need to do over the next four weeks will help you feel more grounded. You may want to make a new list next month or you may find you no longer need it. Continue to make task lists for as long as they provide you with a sense of comfort and stability.
