Grief recovery journey

Sometimes you have to go deep

into dark waters of emotion:

grief, trauma, loss, sadness and sorrow

before you can rise like the Phoenix

and fly freely

into your unknown future.

I will face all my fears and tears

with bravery and courage and grace,

I will not run from them

or try to mask or Bury the pain

with temporary Band-Aids.

I am fully committed

to healing my heart

so I can be the best me

for my children and

those around me.

From My work with
grief recovery Method
and Vicki Hagadorn

Grief speaks

My Grief, she speaks…

She has shown me that…

I didn’t know real pain until I was desperately inhaling his sweater for remnants of a scent that once gave me life…

I didn’t know pain until every single moment I shared with the ONE person now I face alone…

I didn’t know pain, until I see the immense hurt in my children’s eyes and know its the one time I can’t make it better…

I didn’t know pain, until our next chapter then became “my new reality” instead…

I can go on for another 35 yrs & infinity…

My Grief she shows me….

That I am stronger than I EVER thought possible…

That I release through my art and feel moments of real joy…

That I will persevere and triumph for my children…

That I will continue to honor myself and break generational curses!

That I will heal, because I am dealing with it,

every single ounce of it…

It’s most definitely not enjoyable, in fact its actually something I wouldn’t wish on anyone!

But, I have GOD on my side, and through him all things are made possible!

I have sooooooooo many images I will be creating for my grief journey,

They will be my next chapter babies, Something that I give life to that in return gives me the life I now need more than ever!

This post isn’t for pity, its to honor my love and to acknowledge YOUR love/loss…

Grief, I see you

I feel you

Until the next time, I ride the wave with you!

Ideal Attributes for a mate

1) Self-Reliance. Have they successfully endured some time as a happy single? Are they capable of “adulting” without being totally dependent on parents or a boyfriend/girlfriend? The best marriages are two, whole, powerful people joining forces, not two half-people trying to be one whole person.

2) Spiritual Alignment. Our spiritual beliefs underpin every big decision we make. If you’re not aligned spiritually on “meaning of life” kind of things, you’re setting yourself up for potential disaster.

3) Growth mindset. Look for 1 or more of these clues:

– physical exercise/diet regimens

– reading books on personal or spiritual development, business, finance

– working on improving their habits

– attending classes/conferences not required by an employer

Basically, do they work on themselves with their own time and money?

4)Physical attraction. Don’t care what anyone else thinks. Through your own eyes, does this person ‘rev your engine’ a bit? Did your heart beat notably increase the first time you held or thought of holding their hand or putting your arms around them?

My first date

Good morning, friends,
it’s been seven months and I’m going on my first date today from E Harmony.

I feel like I fit two years of grief recovery and healing into my first six months?, as I exposed the lies and embraced truth.

I don’t believe I’m ready for a serious relationship,
but I’d like to explore friendships and possibilities.?

My heart is open to finding love again, my antenna is tune in to the wrong kind of person, I am working to be free of judgment and just get curious About how men think and behave?.

When you have experienced True unconditional love and successful partnership and you know life is meant to be shared and your loved one wants nothing more than for you to love and be loved,
Why would you say no?

What makes you smile?

My response when asked

“What’s the reason for your smile, Sharilyn?”

(By the way, that is my given name)

“The truth is, there is not much in my
external circumstances
to cause my smile,

I could tell you a hundred reasons I should be stressed and depressed,

but I choose to create a smile and joy and ecstasy on the internal through gratitude and meditation.

This is a new thing for me to explore.

My grief and loss propelled me into the research for solutions.”

Ps.
I have studied several books that lead me on this journey, if you send me a PM request, I will share with you

Dating me will probably be like a job interview

And maybe a little like taking a crash course on the following important topics to determine if we are compatible…

Dear Prospect,

Todd and I had a loving relationship that neither of us decided to end nor wanted to end. The truth is I know how to love someone, how to build a life together, and how to endure unimaginable pain and come through it a new and stronger human being.

The day He died was the most devastating day I ever experienced. The pain of my loss took me on a journey that tore me apart and left me gasping for air. Like the mythical phoenix And by God’s grace, I am emerging a stronger version of myself. I am now more beautiful, more compassionate, and more resilient.

He wrote this for my walk to Emmaus in 2017

At 48, after the PTSD of 57 days fighting for his life, Forced to watch him be tortured and murdered by harmful hospital protocols I won’t remarry unless I find the one who shares my life mission.

It just hurts way too much to love and lose, it has to be worth it or I won’t do it!

I’m not just looking for a provider and protector, a mature masculine presence of power and love, companionship, romance and sex, although it’s all wrapped inside. I could live with just about any man with a good heart and I know I’d make him a very very happy man and a better version of himself.

I’m looking for the ONE I can’t live without; a very deep bond of intimacy. I need a life partner to help fulfill my destiny because one can slay a thousand but two ten thousand. I am part of a heavenly army to bring justice to the earth and free mankind from tyranny.

Great advice: “look into your mates eyes, lock hands together, create a circle that’s only for the both of you…don’t let anyone else in . Period.”

One day Winston Churchill and his wife were walking down the streets of London and they passed a chimney sweeper. When they were out of hearing distance, she told her husband that man had asked for her hand in marriage. Winston said aren’t you so glad you married me instead? Oh my darling, she replied if I had married him he would have been the Prime Minister.

Compatibility with shared values, interests and goals.
Mature masculine: both powerful and loving, great sense of humor, adventurous, loyal, loves personal growth.

I believe we are born looking for the one looking for us.

Destiny: the seeking of a person who will complement you and whom you will complement perfectly,

I had that once; we were known as a
power couple:
two individuals who would be successful on their own but their love makes them stronger.
He treated me like a queen in return. I treated him like a rockstar. We made a positive impact on our world and we got shit done.
