Grief is not linear.

It’s okay, to not be okay
It’s okay to cry, to vent,
To feel all the emotions … and be low
Without having to explain yourself.

It’s okay, to be okay
It’s okay to smile, to heal,
To let go of the pain
And hold on to the good memories.

Grief is not linear
You are allowed to be good one day
And fall apart the next
It’s okay to laugh and cry … in the same breath.
