Yesterday myself ,dog, Son,daughter in law and 7year old twins went to Yorkshire Sculpture Park. It was good!! We walked, had a picnic and talked about Grandpa. Told his stories ,his silly jokes and a little bit of me came back.I had not been before so made new memories.I relaxed a little,it gave me hope that these dark ,miserable days will shift and brighten. Best of all ,I did not cry,first day! Wont last ,I suppose but it can happen in tiny little moments.
That’s really nice , that you made some new memories, and you had a brighter day .A couple of weeks ago I went to Salford Queys with my friend. Somewhere I have never been before. I had a really nice day out . So there is hope that in time things will get better. I know we are different in how we cope with our grief.
That’s how it goes, Woody. Once you start taking these steps forward, it gets easier, and that little light starts to glow brighter. Then we take longer steps, which is even easier ad infinitum. And it WILL last!! Well done. There’s no better place to do it in than Yorkshire, is there!!
It is the little steps,one at a time and slowly they add up. Trying to be positive and change my mindset. I stopped driving when my Husband retired but I have renewed my licence and started again. He would be so proud of me and I know he is looking out for me,I see the signs.
