This is Not the End

 The world will tell you that grief will never go away.
That grief is hard and impossible.
That relief from the grief is not possible.
 
And for a little bit I believed that.
I thought that I would never feel healed.
And sometimes I can return to that fearful place where the adversary seeks to drag me down.
 
But recently I realized there is a balm because healing IS possible.
And healing can happen.
And I can feel relief.
And I can have hope.
 
 
And so much happened between these two pictures.
So much changed in our family.
And the change was eternal.
 
 
This is not the end.
And Bradley is still here with us.
And his mission in heaven is to pull us towards it.
 
 
 I do not doubt.
I know it.
