This week I am sharing how I am learning to cope with feeling happy while Grieving and the guilt of being happy.

When a loved one dies, it’s as if you reach out for someone who has always been there only to find that when you need them one more time, they are not there. It has been a journey filled with every emotion you can think of; sometimes, I feel them at once.

I prepared as best as I could daily for the surprise cocktail of emotions that overwhelmed me.

One emotion I believed I would never experience again was the feeling of happiness and deep laughter. Occasionally, I would ask myself, “will I ever truly smile again?, will I ever remember what happiness looks, sounds and feel like?”

I had now accepted that perhaps feeling good and being happy is not something I will experience for an extended period until one day.

Something was different on the bright and cloudless morning.
I was already expecting the usual waves of sadness to flood in as they do.

This morning was different. I didn’t feel sad; I felt normal, chilled, and relaxed. I thought, “this morning feels different. What’s going on? Am I dreaming?”
