It comes in waves

I apologize that I've yet to visit my lovely bloggie peeps for Sunday Sketches.  I really thought I could push myself today to do more but I'm not quite there emotionally.  I'm really having a difficult time accepting my father's gone.

Even looking at the photo taken where dad's ashes were buried between grandma and grandpa - I'm still not there.  I feel a huge wave of grief tonight. Huge.

    Oh Sophia,
    It is such early days yet. We actually never get over our parents passing but, and I know everyone says it, but it's true, it does get easier and all of the good memories take over.
    I think that it's best to embrace your grief....it is actually really helpful and is neccessary to help you. It might not seem it but it is.
    You will get through this but, it will take a little time. XXXX

    So sorry for your loss. This is a dreadful time for you and your brother. I know it sounds phony, but it will get better in time. He will always be with you. Big hugs coming your way.

    To feel grief, we must each endure in our own ways and our own time. Let yourself have the permission to grieve as is your way, then with time, things will brighten a little and you will find the routines falling into place again. Hugs.

    The feeling that there is a huge hole in your stomach will come over you in waves. It's an awful feeling but it will get better over time. Make no apologies - they're not necessary. Hugs
