Every season has its own triggers and traps for grievers… even the sunny summertime.
When you’re grieving it can feel like everyone else’s life is full of sunshine, picnics and patio fun… and all you can see is what you’ve lost. The pressure to “have fun” in the sunshine just makes life harder.
This summer, please accept invitations if they appeal to you but also be brave enough to say no just as often…
There will be other summers.
Be gentle with yourself.
