These moments of our lives are the toughest we'll face, but like with any storm with enough time it will pass. Grip to the wheel of life and search for the gift from the experience that will eventually reveal itself. For when we look back and find that our suffering had a point, it becomes bearable. Victor Frankl said it best... "A man with a strong enough why can bear almost any how".
If you think a book might be useful, Matt Haig's Reasons to Stay Alive helped me through some of my darkest moments. Here's a quote that is printed on the insides of my eyelids "Wherever you are, at any moment, try and find something beautiful. A face, a line out of a poem, the clouds out of a window, some graffiti, a wind farm. Beauty cleans the mind."
I am so sorry for your loss, Lenny. By now you’ve developed some coping skills & perhaps feel a Little better. But we never get over the loss of a parent. But calling into memory some lovely times together, cherishing those memories and even sharing some stories to close friends can help a little to cope with the loss. And you already looked at the history and scheme of things to help know we are not alone in our loss. Acknowledging each individual specialness is a tribute & honor to our loved ones and their time on this earth as they did good deeds and loved us back. And now likely wishing you peace from above. 🙏🏽☮️🥰Blessings to you.
Sending my love Lenny.
