💛 He just died. Now what?
I remember the first day without him. The quiet in the house was so loud, it felt like it was pressing down on me. I made coffee, sat at the table, and… nothing. No laughter. No familiar sound of his footsteps. Just silence. And my heart? Well, it felt like it got left behind somewhere on the doorstep.
At first, I didn’t know what to do with myself. Do I cry? Do I move? Do I pretend everything’s fine? Some days it felt like the world moved on without me, like everyone else had a map and I was just… wandering.
Then I remembered something my Golden Babe sisters always say: “You don’t have to be alone in this.” And honestly, I didn’t feel like talking or pretending. I just needed someone—anyone—to see me in my broken, messy, hurting state.
Being a Golden Babe isn’t about pretending to be strong. It’s about holding space for your own heart, even when it’s breaking. It’s about knowing that even in the quiet, even in the grief, connection can find you. 💫
So yes, I cried. I cried a lot. And I laughed a little too. Because even in the heartbreak, there are Golden Babes ready to hold your hand, share your story, and remind you—you’re not alone.
💛 You’re seen. You’re held. You’re a Golden Babe.
