“Hello --It is May 10th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You’ve just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. Let’s get real, together. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”

WEEK 2: Madness & Acceptance

Day 10: Today’s truth is: “If you don’t know where you’re going, any road can take you there.” Idea:  There is no one path in grief.
 

Grief doesn’t come with a map. And if someone tries to hand you one — toss it out.

Because this path, your path, is going to wind and backtrack and stall. Some days, just getting out of bed will be the win. Other days, you might surprise yourself and laugh, create, connect.

You’re not lost because you don’t know the destination. You’re human. You’re grieving.

There is no schedule. No finish line. No gold stars.

So if all you do today is breathe and survive — that’s enough. If tomorrow holds a spark of light, take it. If not, you’ll find another road when you're ready.

You don’t owe anyone progress.
 But you do owe yourself this: grace. And maybe a reminder that wherever you are — that’s exactly where you’re supposed to be.

So, that's all for now...that's the nugget to carry today

Take a breath. Take what you need. leave the rest. And come back tomorrow because, remember, you're not broken—you're grieving. And you're not alone in this madness. ---I'll be right here Talk Soon."
