The difference between letting go and giving up
To give up means I have surrendered to defeat. Circumstances didn’t go my way, now I wallow here saying I shouldn’t have tried in the first place.
To give up means I fall never to rise again, to give up means my soul may never mend.
I choose to let go, meaning I have resolved at the end of the day I’m determined to be okay. Life is a fickle creature, but my head shall remain held high. I let go, releasing myself of circumstamtial burdens , I release the noose from my soul, I free my mind of the inner turmoil and chaos and find I am at one with myself

Always the looming million dollar question
The answer for this is relentless determination. Even though we fall down 9 times, we can rise back up and conquer.
Let this food for thought marinate ,as we start a new work week.

Navigating the Abyss part 2
Last post we looked at what are practical ways you can cope with grief. I asked you to come up with some ways that might work for you. For me it’s writing or music, or hiking.
Try this take ten minutes a day to write. Find a good place where you can collect your thoughts and let your thoughts just flow on the paper whatever it might be.
Exercise get the blood pumping, this causes endorphins to secrete into the brain promoting healthy attitude and positive well-being.
It’s the small things that help you get back to the road to you.
Next time we will delve into the faith aspect of grief. Once again this is the sidelines with Donavan.

Navigating from the Abyss
We talked about the abyss of grief, as we try to navigate the emotions of that abyss, is there really a way to deal and be made whole from a practical standpoint. Is there truly a way to put the jigsaw puzzle known as your life.
It takes time but you have to get back into a routine, find good distractions. Reading, exercise, writing, a free class, or finding a new hobby. Start simple, but you have to take intiatve to get back to being you.
It won’t be easy, but the saying goes the journey of a thousand miles, begins with a single step.
Thank you for visiting the sidelines with Donavan.

The Abyss of Grief
Then from the cold abyss a cold hand appeared ,
and spellbound he watched as this mysterious hand takes flight,
and it was aimed at his heart.
At the threshold of his chest the hand points a finger and inserts in through his left rib cage,
and it finds its desired target, and with the flick of a wrist his heart was frozen.
Once it was frozen broken fragmented pieces of his heart where more visible, and it just simply shattered and that mysterious hand returned to the abyss as softly as it had come
Often grief comes on, unexpectedly, and it feels like you got punched by Floyd Mayweather.
Welcome to the sidelines with Donavan. Grief can be an abyss and together we will learn how to navigate it.
