Grief changes things. And that’s not a failure—it’s part of the process. 🌱
It’s not unusual for interests, relationships, work, and even routines to shift in grief.
Things that once felt meaningful may no longer fit—and that can feel disorienting. 💭
Grief has a way of reshaping our perspective and priorities.
It is a kind of metamorphosis—often uninvited, often unexpected. 🦋
I often hear: “I just want to get back to who I was.”
But grief doesn’t ask us to go backward. 🚫⏪
As healing unfolds, boundaries change too—
not only with others, but within ourselves. 🛡️
What we have the capacity for.
What we say yes to.
What we release. ✨
You may return to parts of who you once were,
but many old ways no longer fit—and that’s okay. 🤍
You are not doing grief wrong.
Sometimes healing isn’t found in returning…
but in becoming someone new with clearer boundaries and deeper truth. 🌿
