I lost my mom last October and I feel like I haven't really grieved. I feel like I should be doing more or else I am doing it wrong. I feel pressure to grieve more.
Thanks for sharing Greg, and blessings to you and your family. And man, I feel that. Given there's no tradition of grieving in most places, who's to say what grieving really is? It puts a lot of pressure to re-invent it for ourselves.
I don’t know how to stop grieving for your dad. That’s just part of my new normal even though he’d want me, all of us, to live as he did. He’d want us to push forward when it’s difficult, love hard with an open heart and strong faith, have fun, and laugh. A lot. We grew up with so much love! So, I guess, spreading love and joy is how we honor him.

I feel the same way Sue. When in doubt, celebrate! Or at least that's what I'm trying to do.
Would love to learn more. DMing you!
