You're allowing yourself to own your feelings. I've had a couple of close friends who'd lost parents but they couldn't utter a word about it. Even when I asked how they were doing they couldn't respond, as if nothing had happened. I don't know much about grieving and I know that everyone has his or her own way of coping, but I just admire that you acknowledge it and embrace it (if that is the right word...) as a part of life that you go through. xoxoCeciliahttp://onlyoublog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991265338210422893.post-22244527893854604702013-08-27T05:10:20.912-05:002013-08-27T05:10:20.912-05:00I agree wholeheartedly with your list.

And we asked other people to not be shy about telling their stories. The good, bad, and ugly. It helped a lot. We also laughed as often as cried. <br />And when things really sucked, we stopped---canceled plans, forgot about school, and let the world go on while we grieved. <br />Took me awhile to accept number 5 because before death I was so on time and organized and after death everything bottomed out and I couldn't remember anything and when I showed up I was late.<br />In time it changes, you go on with the world.. but a smell, a scent, the hint of memory can still be our undoing.<br />Katybethhttp://oddlovescompany.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991265338210422893.post-41779045131616772292013-08-26T16:14:18.262-05:002013-08-26T16:14:18.262-05:00That last one was beautiful and heartbreaking.
