Pretty Pokes by Emily

Grief and joy aren't opposites, they're partners.

The capacity to feel deep sorrow is the same capacity that holds profound happiness. You can't have one without the other.

If you've been shutting down your grief, you've been shutting down your life.

The pain is real. The grief is overwhelming. But on the other side of finally feeling it, true joy becomes possible again.

How long have you been waiting to let yourself feel it?
