Lest We Forget

On this Remembrance Day, we pause to honor and remember the brave individuals who served and sacrificed for our freedom.

For those who left and never returned.
For those who came home but were never the same.
We remember their sacrifice.
We honor their courage.
We will remember them.

Currently, there are two approved options:

Grief is proof of the existence of love

Grief is not something to fix.
It’s not a phase to “get over.”

Grief is love with nowhere to go.
It’s the echo of connection that was real, deep and sacred.
It’s the evidence that you felt something that mattered.

We only grieve what we love.
And if you’re grieving, it means you dared to love....deeply.
You let someone or something become part of you.

So please, stop trying to rush it.
Stop trying to tidy it up.
Stop trying to stop it in its tracks.
Your grief is not a problem you need to solve.
It’s a story of love, still unfolding. and that is OK.

🕯️ October 15 – Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day 🕯️

Today we remember the little ones who left us too soon and the families who carry their love forever. Whether your loss was recent or long ago, seen or unseen, your grief is valid, and your story matters.

To all who mourn: you are not alone. You are held in thought, in heart, and in light.
