My perspective of grief obviously comes from my experience. Before my child passed I might have considered that grief is grief. Among my experiences with grief prior to Zach passing, one of the dearest, closest people in my life, my grandmother, had passed and yes, I was heartbroken. There is great difference however in a heart being broken and a heart shattering. When a child passes, hearts shatter! Since my experience is from that of a Mother’s shattered heart, that is the perspective I share from. If I can transform my own experience of grief, as a mother with a shattered heart, I can only think that what I share can be helpful to anyone in an experience of grief.
This blog page will contain my posts written from my shattered heart to the shattered hearts of other mothers who I refer to as mommy goddesses. The first post explains why I use the term mommy goddess. While these posts are from a secret, sacred, private, Facebook group created just for mommy goddesses, I invite anyone to read them here in this space. Possibly they can help others in a different experience of grief, heal. And also hopefully they will help those who love a grieving mother, have a better understanding of what that journey looks like, and facilitate a better experience for all. If you are a mommy goddess and would like to interact and be supported in our Mommy Goddess Facebook Group, click the connect button below to request access.
From my heart to yours, healing love and intentions on your grief journey.
