I have been writing about losing my sister, and my last post talked about my daughter and how difficult it was for her to go into my sister’s house, and the time it took to convince her. Since then, I thought that now that we got the trip out of the way, it would be […]

Going Back to Move Forward
For the past two years and ten months, I have consciously avoided returning to Georgia, as it is where my sister resided. I left Georgia in October 2022, and since then, neither my daughter—whom my sister regarded as her own child—nor I have returned. While I am her biological mother, my sister played a significant […]
Finding Hope After Loss: Embracing Your Grief
In my previous post, I wrote about my mother’s experiences coping with grief following the passing of my sister.

I have been spiraling, almost out of control, and all the self-help books and readings were now not applicable, and I did not have a clue on how to slow myself down or even stop myself […]
Staying away from the place of WHY………….
I recently wrote a blog post about getting out of the place of Why, because that was the resolution I came to. As I stated in that post, asking why does not help the reason we are grieving; instead, it deepens our self-pity, and blah blah blah……….. go read the previous post. Anyway, I made […]
Why me????????????
Have you ever been in a situation where you felt alone, and nothing seems to go your way or nothing seems to work? Have you ever thought that everything bad that could happen always happens to you, but you know people that nothing bad ever happens to them; everything is always peachy? Well, I don’t […]
