What is grief?
Recently I happened to see a video about grief. A clinical psychologist was explaining what exactly grief is and how it works, in a very interesting manner. She said that grief never becomes less or never really goes away, instead we start to create newer experiences and memories around it. It made so much sense.
However what never makes sense is why it had to happen. As the date is nearing. That fateful day when we lost my Dada and the days before that. It all has been hitting us so much in the last few weeks. And each of us is trying to understand what this loss has done to us. Some have found answers while some are still searching for their answers. Only thing we've come to terms with together is how much we miss him. My father was hands down the best human being I've ever known in my life. He was the epitome of kindness. The most practical person I know. And the most loving father. The best son. An awesome husband. The most fun brother. Every role he's ever donned in his life, he's done it with perfection. He was a true example of a genuinely loving human being.
So as we all prepare together for the date, the one year anniversary of him going away from us, we all realise that the grief is a real bitch. Grief can take you to the lowest point in life. But it also makes you realise how much a person made an impact in your life, an impact that nobody can ever replace.
And most importantly how much we love this person.
Dear Dada,
Not a day goes by without us thinking about you. There's so much to tell you Dada. I'll see you soon on the other side. I love you so much my Dada❤️
