THE SILENT HEARTBEAT

THE SILENT HEARTBEAT

Wherever you are in your grief journey, the silent heartbeat of your loved one will always beat within your own heart.  Whether you’re grieving the loss of a parent, child, spouse, relative or friend, you can never be separated from that loving connection.  Just like a mother and child are connected prior to birth through an umbilical cord, once cut and separated to breathe on their own, there will still be a deeper connection to that silent breath that nurtured them together in the first place.  We create that same pathway when we care deeply for someone.  We stay connected to them even if they aren’t physically there because they remain emotionally within us through that unbreakable connection called love. 

Take a moment to feel the presence of your loved one within you.  Put your hand on your heart, feel its pulse, enter into its rhythm, and silently feel their presence within you.  No one or nothing can ever take that treasure away from you.

                               “For where your treasure is, there will your heart also be.” Matthew 6:21

GREED AND GRIEF

GREED AND GRIEF No doubt after the death of a loved one, money issues can arise that can cause disparity and disruption inside a family relationship.  Suddenly, folks who were scarce come out to claim their share of the family money pie.  The death of a loved one doesn’t always bring out the best in people as it can bring out emotions of entitlement, especially when larger sums of money are on the line.  Trying to deal with these difficult issues can harvest a variety of negative emotions and really can make it extremely messy inside the family system.  It’s always hard to put a price or value to one’s life after death, let alone trying to satisfy the financial quest of those who become filled with greed.   Greed is an emotion that can compromise one’s values – not value in terms of money, but the values we hold in our own self-worth.  Greed always begs one to ask themselves this question:  Is my greed really worth It? If you are dealing with fami...

HATE

HATE.   We should all hate the word hate.  Hate is an extreme and real feeling people can have for another.  Hate is holding a deep hostility with such an intensity, especially when someone has been wronged or deeply hurt by another.  Hate is derived from fear, anger or sense of injury.  In the case of grief, issues of hate can arise when someone we love has been injured or died because they were wronged by another, regardless of whether the act was intentional or accidental.  The problem with hate is that it can become all-consuming and fill our minds with such negativity and darkness.  Hate can and will stunt our emotional maturity.   When someone has been wronged by another resulting in the death of a loved one, it would be almost impossible not to experience the feelings of hatred toward the person who committed the act.   But working through the multitude of feelings that hatred can spring within, there should be more dist...

GRIEF AFTER DIVORCE OR BROKEN RELATIONSHIP

Image
GRIEF AFTER DIVORCE/RELATIONSHIP BREAK-UP Grieving after a divorce or breaking off a relationship with someone you once deeply cared for means taking a different road down the journey of grief.  Regardless, you still need to take the time to grieve the loss of an important relationship.  Not all relationships can bear the weightiness of working through disagreements, conflicts, jealousies, immaturity, and a variety of issues that crop up in staying unified in a relationship that involves two very different people.  Personalities, life experiences, conflict resolution and getting through tough situations takes a lot of communication and the ability to compromise, forgive, change direction and working together no longer works.  Many couples simply have a difficult time trying to maneuver through many of those life challenges.  Still, there remains an inner sadness because what was once a love story has soured into a relationship ending, oftentimes with unkind thou...
