1. Understand that your heart is in fact broken, even if no one can see it
Grieving is not a linear process, and there's no 'right way' or specific timeline. The clock starts when you begin to recognize and genuinely address your grief, regardless of the duration.
Recognize what burdened you and what you feel was taken away. These answers guide you in understanding what you need to grieve.
To connect with your grief, embrace the loss and all the emotions it brings, including anger, sadness, and resilience. Moving through grief requires fully feeling and acknowledging these emotions.
To truly address grief, one must venture into the less predictable and unfamiliar aspects of it, confronting the pain and embracing the unpredictable pieces of life waiting on the other side.
