Grief is one of the most personal journeys we will ever experience. No two people grieve the same way, and there is no timeline for healing.
I lost my grandmother on July 4, and there are still days when the tears come without warning. I've come to realize that grief doesn't simply disappear with time. The pain may soften, and the burden may become lighter to carry, but the love, the memories, and the absence remain.
We don't stop missing the people we've lost. Instead, we learn to live with the space they leave behind while holding them close in our hearts every day.

I am sorry for your loss. I still miss my Mom and Dad--This past June 18th would have been her 82nd birthday.

I agree I don't think there is a timeline for grief, it just becomes easier to live with.

@aureliah You're very welcome.
I was wondering about you. It's been so long since I've seen you.

I'm sorry for your loss. Yes, grief hits all of us in different ways. The memories remain and get better with time.
