The Collective Grief of a World in Mourning

We bereaved are not alone. We belong to the largest company in all the world—the company of those who have known suffering.” ~ Helen Keller

As the news of yet more war, more fighting, more pain, more devastation, and more loss fills our television screens and takes over social media, we average people in our day-to-day lives collectively grieve.

We grieve for a world forever changed by these nonsensical decisions to harm others. We grieve for a world that seems to have lost its way. We grieve for the deaths. The injured. The unnecessary destruction that history has shown, time and time again, does nothing but cause more pain. More heartache. More anger. More hatred. And more loss and grief. Nobody ever wins.

After a long marriage, 2 children (now grown), a separation and embarking on a brand new life, I have realised life is always a journey. I have made mistakes, I have hurt and been hurt, I have loved and I have lost and at times I completely lost myself and forgot the Queen that I am. As women we are the nurturer, the caregiver but sometimes we underestimate the Goddess within us and my journey has made me realise that when our crown is crooked, we need to adjust it ourselves and remember the Queens that we are! This will be a blog about what I have learnt, what I am continuing to learn and how we can help each other. I will talk about all things love and life and at times this will be controversial but life and love is never black and white but varying shades of grey. We live in a judgemental society and so many of us live our lives according to the expectations of others, rather than doing or being what truly makes us happy. I hope you join me on my journey and on my quest to find that Inner Goddess and we can learn from each other and we can discuss the judgements and societal expectations that hold so many of us back. It's time to seek our inner happiness!!
