I still work on my feelings about my grief and don't think that will ever change. I am happy most days now and have a new marriage...but the grief for the loss is still there. My hubby wants to "share" it, but to me it is private and I know he means well. I loved the onion in the hankey line.... Take care...Winnienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-61160274738425415782012-04-12T07:31:38.502-04:002012-04-12T07:31:38.502-04:00My heart hurts for you.

I would cry too. <br />My family was the same way! We didn't show emotion, yet we are so sensitive and soft hearted. <br />I worry about my son. He doesn't like to go to his brother's grave or participate in any group activity expressing grief. <br />I know it has taken me years to identify appropriate anger and to feel it. And then we pass on all these dysefunctional traits to our children. Whew. We do the best we can, with what we have.Hollyhttp://www.desharanch.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-15523380670495511712012-04-12T07:31:37.500-04:002012-04-12T07:31:37.500-04:00I'm sorry to hear you have been through such p...I'm sorry to hear you have been through such pain at the loss of your son...and that your family didn't allow you to show emotion growing up.

And I internalized it all too well. I am only now starting to poke around in things. I think it's good that you are looking at where your own tendencies came from and even better that you have the outlet of the blog. <br /><br />Paid mourners sounds like a fantastic tradition. ;)masked_momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1078324787471983933.post-84159260639796895032012-04-08T22:20:10.085-04:002012-04-08T22:20:10.085-04:00Lynda,

I don't know if you've experienced that feeling yet or not, but it just grips me. Mine still creeps up on me at times. Today was tough. Times with the family. And my youngest son missing. Though the Easter story is such a powerful and uplifting time for me to reflect on the hope I have in Jesus Christ! He is the only comfort I've found!Hollyhttp://www.desharanch.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
