Grief.  Does it ever really end? Is the expectation that it should end one that society places on us or is this something I have placed on myself? I don't have any answers, all I know is I am still grieving. Everyday. 

In this episode I talk about my compounded grief of losing my mom and brother and how the looming first anniversary of my brothers death has me feeling the crushing weight of his loss all over again.  As deep and raw as the day he died.  Is this normal?  I don't know. Nor do I care.  We need to normalize grief and how we all feel and experience it differently because every loss is different, for example how I felt after losing my mom isn't necessarily how someone else felt when they lost their mom.  Or how I felt when I lost my brother isn't necessarily how someone else felt when they lost a sibling.  

I know what I am feeling and I did my best to explain what I am feeling because I want to help anyone else grieving a loss, or multiple losses. I want to tell them that there is no right way to do this, there is no timeline. No end game.   Grief doesn't have to end, but we can learn to live with it. This episode is a bit about that. With a few other things thrown in because sometimes I don't know where I'm going with something until I get there. Such is life though!

Thanks for listening.
