I don’t think grief leaves us unchanged.

How could it?

How could losing someone you love not change the way you see the world?

Four years after losing my father and godfather, I don’t think I’m the same person I was before.

Some parts of me became softer.

Some parts became stronger.

Some parts never fully came back.

But grief also taught me things I never would have learned otherwise.

To pay attention.

To love people while they’re here.

To stop assuming there’s always more time.

To find beauty in ordinary moments.

So yes, I believe you can heal.

I just don’t believe you’ll be the same.

And maybe that’s not a bad thing.

Maybe healing isn’t becoming who you were before.

Maybe it’s becoming someone new. 🤍

✨ If this speaks to your heart, comment LETTER and I’ll personally send you an invitation to my free weekly letter about life, loss, and becoming.
