"Hello --It is May 30th and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You’ve just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”

WEEK 5: The 3 Day Wrap -up for the Month

Day 30: Today’s truth is: "Life, what is it but a dream?"  Idea: The surreal nature of life after loss. 

Grief makes reality feel hazy — like you're walking through someone else's life. Or maybe the world is continuing without you.

It's okay to feel lost in this surreal, poetic, and incomprehensible life. But remember, you're not alone in this journey.

It's okay to feel like you're simultaneously living in a dream and reality. Your emotions are not only valid but also a testament to the depth of your love.

And know that your child's love still threads through this dream. You're not living it by yourself. All of us in this community are walking this path with you, sharing the same love and loss.

So, let's end here. One more day to go. This was the second to last nugget for May.

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."
