What do you do with grief?

What do you do with grief?

Pour it out

Let it is spill over

Run here and there

Let it touch every area of your life

Let yourself grieve the things that

were

or

are

or

could have been

or

will be

Don’t cut yourself off

Give yourself space to feel it

Really feel it

Pour out

In moans

Or tears

Or shaking

Or howls

Feel the release

The draining

The relief of the pressure

Then

In the quietness

The stillness that follows

Turn the eyes of your heart

Outward

Upward

Close your eyes

And hear the stillness

As it makes its way into your very soul

“Be still

And know”

You breathe in

Yah

You breathe out

Weh

Wor

Ship

Won

Der

Still

Ness

Yah

Weh

Shalom
