The Most Surprising Way My Grief Has Evolved 5 Years After Loss

Five years after losing my dad to cancer my grief has evolved. I’m  surprised and overwhelmed to say I have acceptance about the length of time we had together. I can celebrate the gift my dad was and continues to be in my life.  I can humble myself to God’s plan and the circumstances he put in our lives that caused my relationship with my dad to transcend its earthly form.  This has been the most surprising way my grief has evolved after loss.  Recognizing that I still have a relationship with my dad and that he is never really gone from my life has changed the way I live every day.
