Todays Helping of Chicken Soup for the Soul

Grieving Time, A Time for Love

By Barbara Bergen

If a loved one has departed,

And left an empty space,

Seek the inner stillness,

Set a slower pace.

Take time to remember,

Allow yourself to cry,

Acknowledge your emotions,

Let sadness pass on by.

Then center in the oneness,

Remember . . . God is here,

Death is but a change in form,

Your loved one is still near.

Treat yourself with kindness,

Allow yourself to feel,

God will do the mending,

And time will help you heal.
