Feeling It: The fog rolled in and stayed.
If there is ever something in my life that I can't or couldn't change on my own, it is the fog that rolled in and has stayed so long that just once in a while I see or notice something that I've never seen before in clarity. Just the other day when I was babysitting my grandson I looked down at a toy that I've had since my children were little and notice that it had screws in it! How very odd is that?
Coping With It: Don't rush into major change with relationships, finances, major purchases, and moving, etc.
Give yourself a chance to feel it and heal it enough so that you will think more clearly and not make decisions that you might later regret. Time can feel like your enemy because you may feel like you're held captive as you deal with your emotions. Time can also be your friend when it comes to coping with your grief and loss.
Try to think positive when you deal with time. While working through grief work, time can feel unstable and on the flip side, time can help you feel more stable. Think positive about time and choose to make it work for you long term.
