Sharing session

Last week I attended a sharing session. Two years ago, I also attended the similar sharing session and know a group of friends and we became good friends. Like me, we are all single mummy. Our husbands were the victims of cancer. Our childnren also grown up together. The sharing session provided the atmosphere to let us pour out and talked about the grief, the problems we faced and how we overcome it.

Grief is an ongoing process, even when our loved one may have already be dead for some time. This is a psychological process that requires time to heal. I believed TIME will heal our internal injury but we are the master of the time. How long a person takes to move on depends every much on the nature of the relationships with the deceased, the personal coping and the social support.

I have a big family with supporting brothers and sisters and the group of friends. These support are very important to me. It helps me to move on with my normal routine quite fast. I cherish these support.

I read a book that told us not to 'reinforce' the remembrance process. The grief and loss will always be felt during significant days like birthday and death anniversaries. In our heart, we will never never forget our loved one and things that he had done.
