Two Versions.
There are two versions of me now.
There is the one who goes to work, buys groceries, answers emails, and smiles back when spoken to. The one the world sees.
Then there is the one who sits in the quiet of the car, staring at the dashboard, wondering how life keeps moving forward when mine was forever changed.
Grief creates this split.
We learn how to function while carrying something unimaginably heavy. We show up, participate, and keep going, all while holding an absence that never leaves us.
What people don’t always see is the energy it takes to appear okay. The effort required to walk through ordinary moments when the ground beneath you still feels unsteady. When part of you is still trying to make sense of a reality you never wanted.
Some days, surviving the day is the accomplishment.
It is exhausting to perform normalcy when your entire world has been permanently altered.

At The Grief Club of Minnesota, we hold space for all of it~the moments when you are moving forward, the moments when you are simply getting through, and everything in between 🧡 … See MoreSee Less
