Continuing bonds journaling

I just wanted to share that I started this last night and I’m so pleased I did. The past 10 days since I lost my mum have been devastating and I have felt numb, incredibly sad, weighed down and my heart physically ached. My mum and I would message each other umpteen times a day until her health declined in the last month. Starting to write to her again, chat about the days of the last week felt so good and I immediately felt lighter. I feel it is continuing the really special bond we always had and keeps her a part of what I’m doing. I know it’s been posted about before but wanted to share as I feel it is transformative. Yes there’s a long, difficult path ahead as I try to navigate life without my best friend, but I feel I now have some way of making her more a part of it. I hope this might help someone else too.
