Trauma is hard, loss and grief aren’t new…it’s the overwhelming trauma…I find it to be the greatest challenge…overcoming the trauma of life…how do I get to the point of forgiveness , let alone for myself…? It has become my life long lesson….Forgiveness

If you forgive anyone...

“Forgive yourself.” said Bear.
“For what?” asked Rabbit.
“All the things you didn’t know.” said Bear.

This simple text explains a lot of complexity 💜

Easter was the last holiday I had with my Mom before she passed... she died about 10 days later.

My brain struggles to recall the date itself, but I feel it coming. It's been 10 years, but the pain of that loss is still there. And that's okay. That's grief. It works in its own way, in its own time.

Love you, mom. You're still my favourite mom. 😉❤ ( That's something I joked about with her often, and to which she would always reply, "I'm your only mom, you silly nut.")

***

I remember the day you died
You closed your eyes
after looking at me one last time
& went to sleep

Your breaths
long, soft, and slow

I held your hand
and looked at you
My person.
My perfect person.
Taking your final breaths
& me...
trying, helplessly, haplessly
to say goodbye
and thank you

And then it happened

There we stood
Hand in hand
at the edge of a great abyss
You were afraid to take that step
& I was afraid to let you go
to be alone in the world without you

But it had to be

I said, "I'll be okay"
Because I would
It was you, after all, who prepared me

Then, as always, you were brave

You took that step

And I knew
because of you
one day
I could be that brave, too

I don't really discuss this much, except with one person, but the day my mom passed, I recall being in two places at once... the hospital room, and an airy space or ocean like place with my mom, holding hands. It was surreal, and I've not really been able to write about it much.

stopped beating.

And mine
carried on...

One of the most significant truths I am grateful of knowing.

I met myself one day
after I'd fallen apart

I lay on the ground
limbs shattered and torn
mind tired and weary
heart
broken

Everything lost
and nothing left to lose

Surely the ground would swallow me up?
I thought
I hoped

But it didn't

The earth from which I came
wouldn't reclaim me
I wondered if I were poison?

I lay there a while longer
eyes closed
the earth breathing beneath me
deep exaggerated breaths

I matched its rhythm

and when I did

My limbs stitched back together
My mind relaxed
& my heart began to mend

And...

I saw her

standing there
staring in
and out through my eyes

She reached for me with my mothers hands
smiling a beautiful storied smile

Myself.

I love you, she said

And I believed her
