In the midst of grief, how often do we find ourselves overwhelmed by the relentless stream of well-intentioned, but ultimately draining, comments? The cliches - "give it time," "stay strong," "eat something and you'll feel better," and the ubiquitous "I'm sorry" - may begin to feel like a broken record, leaving us feeling increasingly isolated and misunderstood. It's during these times that we often choose to retreat into silence, seeking solace in our own thoughts and emotions.

Today I stumbled across this post of Grieving In Silence and want to express that it (silence) is how much of my grieving has been done - it works for me. I also need to say that the Grief Recovery program I attended and especially the help of Kim Wolfe provided very strong assistance. Today is almost 4 years after the loss of the "Love of My Life" and I have attained a level of reality with my current life that I did not expect and a lot of that if due the help and guidance of Kim (Thank you my friend).
