They say cancer patients have good days and bad days. Dealing with grief is kind of like that. It can be a bright and sunny day, then all of a sudden a dark gloomy cloud rests overhead. Out of nowhere. It could be a smell, a song, a phrase, or just looking at a photo in passing that triggers it.
I've been told the pain softens over time, but time seems to be dragging! I realize it's a process that one must go through to be healthy on the other side.
At the end of each day I try to think of a blessing I received that day and write it down. It may be simply my daughter's safe return from the next town, or getting the resources to cover a hefty utility bill.

To cope, I
have to look for the blessings in that day. As the pain softens, and time passes, I may look back at my book and be able to count many blessings!
I hope so.
