You can’t truly heal from a loss until you allow yourself to really FEEL the loss.

Mandy Hale
About This Quote

Healing from the loss of a loved one is never easy. It can be painful to live through the trauma, but allowing yourself to feel the pain can be the only way to move forward. Even though you may have already come to terms with your loss, it can still get in your way of healing. You may have accepted that your loved one is gone, but you are still stuck in an imaginary state where you are still searching for closure.

The pain of grief doesn’t disappear just because you’ve given up on the idea of ever finding closure. It will never completely go away, but you can begin to feel it again if you allow yourself to feel it without trying to hold it back.
