The day after the funeral, nothing was the same because grief changes the lens through which we see the world. We notice what matters. We realize what was fleeting. And we begin the slow process of shaping a life without someone who shaped ours.
It’s painful. It’s disorienting. But it’s also a reminder of how much love can exist in a life, because grief is only that deep when the bond was real.
Moving Forward, One Day at a Time
Life doesn’t pause for loss. The sun still rises, the world keeps turning, and the people we love continue to leave marks on our hearts. The day after the funeral, nothing was the same—but that also meant that the days ahead could be different in ways that honor the people we’ve lost.
Sometimes, grief feels like an ending. But slowly, it becomes part of a new beginning, one where we remember, cherish, and continue living with the lessons and love we carry forward.
