had a conversation yesterday with a friend that was going through a rough time and was shocked and seriously felt like i had been hit in the head during it. she made a very eloquent comment about how a lot of times, you are really mourning, not what really was, but what you hoped that it would be.
maybe it is just me, but i found this to be incredibly profound. and powerful. it could really "guide" what you choose to actually mourn or grieve over. of course, you should always give yourself time to do both of those things if need be, but for some reason, that little comment made it seem like you can take back a little bit of the power from those demons that sometimes sneak their way into our lives.
