We came across this quote and thought it might speak to someone today.

Grief doesn’t just disappear, and it doesn’t have a finish line. It changes over time—some days are heavier than others—but it keeps moving with you as life goes on.

If you’re walking through loss right now- maybe experienced loss at the holidays- know that what you’re feeling is normal, and you don’t have to have it all figured out. We’re here, and we’re thinking of you.
