People forget you are grieving. They offer their condolences in the first few weeks, sure, but not too long after that, they just get on with their lives, and it hurts. But don’t take it to heart too much, it’s just the way people are. It doesn’t take away from what you are experiencing at all. This Christmas, may we all embrace the gift of our beautiful holiday memories of those who are gone. Even as we grieve, we are grateful for the joy we have shared. Love as powerful as your mother’s for you leaves its own mark. To have been loved so deeply, even though the person who loved us is gone, will give us some protection forever”– J.K. Rowling

Like freshly fallen snow, my tears fall as a reminder of those I miss in Heaven this holiday season.This year, take the time to write Christmas Wishes For Mom & Dad In Heaven.

This isn’t helpful, and you are just being unnecessarily cruel to yourself. Instead of focusing on what you didn’t do or times where you messed up, remember the times you made your parent proud or happy. Think through what expectations there are around your time and don't be afraid to opt out of anything that you feel will be especially upsetting or tiring for you. People will understand that you have limited energy. Looking ahead can help avoid last-minute disappointment. Life might go on but it is never the same.
