For Those Who’ve Experienced Loss and Those Who Love Them
-
Please say “I remember...” We love to hear tender, funny, and just interesting things from your perspective.
-
Let go of your expectations: yourself and others.
-
Be willing to flex from traditions. Changes are not necessarily permanent and things will be different anyway.
-
Guard your heart from your ears. You will hear people say things that you shouldn’t take personally.
-
Prepare for the unexpected, both positive and negative. Remembering a favorite dish that does not need to be prepared, an item that needn’t be purchased, an empty chair, will occur when we least expect it.
-
Make a memory. For example, for Christmas, create an ornament with the persons name and a word that describes them, or simply a picture.
-
Try something new, light-hearted, and fun.
