Grief in recovery

Grief in recovery

October 28


Grieving any loss is hard. I have never experienced the thought or topic of grief more than in recovery. We mourn the loss of our former selves, the loss of alcohol, the loss of childhood, the loss of friends, and right now, for me, the loss of my friend and sponsor. In the last eight years, I have enjoyed watching a natural leader guide and nurture people with love, kindness, and an overwhelming show of empathy and compassion. I have witnessed the principles of our program in action up close. Expressed through the heart of one of the most endearing men I have ever met. It’s not easy to love and lose someone close to you. An overwhelming emptiness surrounds the thought and expression of love I once had for that man. They say, “Grief is just love with no place to go.” And I understand that today more than I would care to.


Reflections

Am I grieving the loss of something?


Daily Challenge

Don’t be afraid to name it if you feel a sense of loss. It’s called grief, and it’s okay to feel it.
