when we lose a parent, we don’t just lose a loved one. we lose all we have ever known. the ones who raised us to be who we are today. a vital piece of our world goes missing and we ache for it back. and no matter how old we are, we still feel so lost without them.. we still need them. but through their loss, the strength we show on our grief journey is the reminder of the influence that they continue to have on our lives.. and always will.
