The Weight Of What's Gone: Words & Thoughts From A Grieving Heart | Grief Quotes & Poems

by Jenna Lowthert

i hope the days you have spent without me have not been filled with so much heartache and sadness. i hope they have been filled with all the love, strength, and happiness you deserve. though i am no longer with you on earth, please know that i am always watching over you, i have not missed a beat. this life is filled with ups and downs and i know you’ve struggled with my passing but i hope you continue to live your life in the fullest way possible. life is a gift and i want you to always remember to make the most of it. love life, go see the world, always be kind to others and never give up on those dreams of yours. when you are sad, please remember that you always carry a piece of me with you. we are forever connected, no matter the distance. you have my heart; you are my heart. when you feel lost or lonely, please think of me with joy rather than sadness, and when you are missing me, please think of all the happy times, the laughter, and the love that we shared. i know i can't be by your side to tell you that it will all be okay, but you must know, my daughter, that my love for you never went away. never forget that i live in your heart and one day, when the time is right, i will see you again and hug you so tight. with all my love from heaven, mom
