20.01.2022 About six months before my mom passed away from a long, 10 year, second time around, bout with breast cancer, I noticed that she always left her lipstick blotte...d tissues around so I asked her to use the same tissue multiple times and let me save them so I would always have her kisses! She loved the idea and did, and the first Christmas after she passed away, I framed them and gave them as gifts to my siblings and my children. Now we cherish her kisses every day! See more

19.01.2022 <3 Love Wicker/Willow and Hand Made Products? Then you may be interested in the Wicker/Willow Caskets available from your local provider of funerary items Retu...rning Home, which offers these earthy caskets that have been crafted by hand in small rural cottage environments. Background: The willow plant is fast-growing and does not need to be cut down to be harvested, making this a very sustainable material. When the casket is buried in the earth it will break down naturally over time. Willow caskets are also suitable as a cremation container. Information: This durable casket has a flat top and attractive design perfect for families that desire a simple, yet dignified farewell for a loved one which can be decorated with flowers, photos, notes or keepsakes. The Wicker/Willow Casket is fully lined with a natural, unbleached cotton interior, and can be purchased from Colleen at Returning Home in Victor Harbor SA. Contact: Call us on 0438 257 612 to make an appointment to view this and other products, ask questions and chat about your wishes.

17.01.2022 A very sad sign of the times. Rest in Peace

10.01.2022 Because we have such a deep aversion in this culture to allowing grief to exist, we have a lot of people who are carrying grief that is five years, ten years, t...wenty years, fifty years old that's never really had a chance to be heard. They've packed it away because it wasn't safe to say it. Or, when they did say that they were in pain or they were grieving, they were told to suck it up or put it away or it's not that bad. Maybe there were other cultural constructs around that. For a lot men and male identified people, showing sadness in any way is unacceptable. I work with a lot of people who lost someone close to them in their childhoods, and their family system was such that they were never allowed to talk about it again. When I talk about, in my book, epidemics of unspoken grief, this is part of what I'm talking about. Our cultural history of pretending that grief is no big deal, of not allowing grief to take up space or have a voice has actually caused a lot of our epidemics of depression, anxiety, drug addiction, interpersonal violence, and other challenges. That's what happens when you don't allow your emotional reality to take up the space it needs. That's what happens when you don't allow the truth to have space to exist. It's not that your pain goes away, it finds other ways to speak. For somebody who is carrying a loss that feels old to themI u, se the word "old" in air quotes, because old is a matter of opinion. When my partner died, one of the best things somebody said to me was, with a loss of this magnitude, "just happened" can be 8 days ago as much as it can be 80 years ago. So if you're carrying a loss that still feels tender to you, no matter how long ago it was, it's never too late to turn towards that and give it your love and attention. It's never too late to ask yourself: if I were to turn to face this loss, what would I need and how might I listen? And what will I do when that conditioning that I have, as part of this culture of systems that don't really honor messy emotions, leads me to think that I should be over it by now? How do I want to respond to myself? Because there's no reason to "should" yourself in that situation. Anytime you decide you'd like to really listen to your own truth, it's a good time to do that. There's no expiration date on the grief that you carry. How about you? Do you have grief you've tried to ignore because you've told yourself or others have told you that you should be over it by now? #megandevine #refugeingrief #itsokthatyourenotok #griefrevolution #griefsupport #lifeafterloss #griefsucks #brokenheart #grief #griefandloss #bereavement #loss #imissyou #mentalhealth #selfcare #selfkindness #cancersucks #fuckcancer #miscarriage #stillborn #pregnancyloss #infantloss #childloss #depressionhelp #dementia #howtohelp #normalizegrief
