"New Beginnings"

Life after loss, reforming, regrowing stages.....I like to call this "New Beginnings". Imagine a new, fresh rosebud or what's inside a cocoon. We have to refind ourselves without our loved one, continuing on with everything anew all within our old selves.

This takes time and this time varies from person to person. This stage is not easy to get to but once it is reached, it can also be a bit overwhelming with its beautiful gratitude. As we progress forward, we NEVER forget where we've come from nor our loved one lost. All of this only helps reshape us into whom we become. It is alright to smile again, laugh again, be happy again all while being scared, unsure, cautioned.

If you have reached this stage, I congratulate you; if you have not, I tell you to keep pressing forward through the frontline pain and the healing process-you will get there, my friend. Keep pressing into our Father and Lord. {Psalm 30:2}
