Here’s today’s grief truth. “It’s okay to laugh and cry in the same hour.”
Grief is full of contradictions — and also full of truth.
One moment, you’re sobbing in the car because their favorite song came on. The next, you're belly-laughing at the memory of something wild they once did.
That swing? That unpredictability? It doesn’t mean you’re unstable — it means you’re human.
We are wired to hold both heartbreak and humor, joy and sorrow, love and longing.
You are allowed to laugh, even in your sadness.
You are allowed to cry, even in your joy.
Grief contains multitudes — and so do you.
Take a breath.
Let the truth settle where it needs to.
You don’t have to carry everything — just what feels true today.
You’re not lost — you’re walking with your truth.
I’ll be here again tomorrow.
Talk soon.
