Being more mature

Feeling more relax

have a nice day

Hi all! This post is for my Step 1150 !!

One thing I am learning lately is that we cannot do this 'thing' alone! We human beings were not meant to try to be all self-sufficient and loners and say, "Oh, I'm fine; I don't need anyone else."

I am working through a very recent, extremely unexpected death of a long time friend. I am re-learning in this that while a person in grief may not know what they need or what they want; they still have those wants and needs. One is for understanding - okay so you didn't know my friend, but you could ask about him or ask what I miss or what I learned from him. Two is for time - people who are grieving need time to process and figure out things, like how is my life going to be different now (sad question perhaps) and what sorts of roles to I need to re-fill now that my friend is gone. Three, I think people who are in grief need to be encouraged to feel their feelings! Meaning, it is okay to be angry, it is okay to feel sorrow, etc.

I'm out of time, see y'all next Milestone :) Platy

Mmm, I reached 70 growth points. For me, that is an accomplishment in itself. I was tasked to tell something I learned from a forum, and for a minute I was stumped. Then it dawned on me that what I have learned is that I do not have to be depressed all the time. There are always people here who make me feel better about myself, and it has helped me a great deal. So hurray for 7 Cups, I am learning.

Things are coming along.
