The River of Grief — Letting the Emotions Flow
Grief is not wrong.
It is like a gently
flowing river, winding through the wilderness of the heart. Sometimes, it slips
from your eyes in silence; other times, it carries deep fatigue and emptiness,
too heavy to put into words.
Growing up, we are
often told to be “strong,” “positive,” and “cheerful.” But in the language of
the soul, grief is an extension of love, an emotion that longs to be
acknowledged, a signal that something inside us yearns to be held and seen.
Once, during a quiet
meditation, I felt a dull ache rising in my chest—an ancient sorrow surfacing.
I didn’t try to analyze it. I just sat with it, allowing its presence. Tears
began to flow gently, and in that moment, it felt like I was holding a quiet funeral
for a long-lost world within me.
That moment of
allowance became the beginning of healing.
Emotions are not our
enemies. They are compasses, messengers from the soul.
Grounding
Suggestions:
- Find a safe space where you can cry, stare
blankly, or simply do nothing at all.
- Write a letter to the grieving part of
you. You don’t have to send it—just express it truthfully.
- Close your eyes and imagine yourself by a
river. Place your sorrow in your palms and offer it to the river to carry
away.
You are not alone in
crossing this river of grief. In unseen dimensions, your soul family, guides,
and a greater love are walking beside you—always.
