🌿 The Firsts Are the Hardest 🌿
The first birthday…
The first anniversary…
The first holiday, celebration, or special moment after a loss — they can stir emotions we thought had settled.
Whether it’s the passing of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or a big change that’s altered life as we knew it, those “firsts” often remind us of what — or who — is missing. And that’s okay.
Grief takes many shapes. It can appear as tears, silence, laughter, or memories that bring both warmth and ache. What matters most is allowing ourselves to feel and honour what was — and still is — part of us. 💜
