So I intended to follow up with part ll in a timely manner. Yes you guessed it, some of the effects of grieving, like inability to focus, got in the way. That's grief for you!
I want to acknowledge the kind comments, emails, etc that I received regarding this past post, and many others, but this last post in particular. I share honestly and raw because it is consistent with my desire to encourage others to care for orphans in their distress, while sharing the unknowns and unexpected. I want to help equip others and support others in their journeys. This is very deliberate and thought out desire to encourage and promote the cause to defend the fatherless, even when it hurts or it is hard.

I have encountered a number of events that have challenged me to take action and not hold on to myths that are in conflict with my natural state. Adotpion is no different and I want to encourage others in their life journeys to take action in any area you might be grieving.
Grief Recovery is a fabulous institution/book about what grief is. HOW to RECOVER, and provides the framework in which to take these actions. Highlights the myths that time heals all pain, to grieve alone, to be brave/strong for others, to replace the loss, and keep busy, and don't feel bad. more here. I'll let you check it out. I highly recommend it.
Off to Take Action.......
