Though blessed in all of my days, it has come to the time of the year filled with hardships. My family and my close friends are all dealing with a lot, a lot of sad news. So overwhelming I see people dealing with it in many different ways, wearing sunglasses at all time, trying to overcompensate and do extra so they don't have to deal with the pain, trying to pretend like nothing is wrong, becoming fully unavailable to people who need their help.
Really? Is there even a right answer? The only thing that helps grief is time. Give the person time to come of out, but simply be supportive find a way to show that you are there for them. I personally like to revolve myself around positive things, but also sometimes I feel so bad, not being positive when everyone else is trying, so I generally just try to be alone.
My biggest fear is that I am the person who becomes fully unavailable, not emphatic, not caring. I'm not really sure how to show that. I do know text messages are the devil and I fully plan to employ in phone calls more often in my future.
<3 Just keep trying...and know that they're doing much better with God.
