Grief is the outcome of love and loss. It should not be resisted.
Grief is experienced and expressed differently by each person. Here is my testimony of grief and joy, which coexist with hope and faith.
In the cold drear of winter , I am sad, still grieving the physical absence of my mother, whose cheerful hellos and sweet good-night kisses are no longer… a nighttime ritual has stopped and the telephone cannot ring.
And in this silent void, there is the gift of tears. As winter’s cold silence passes peacefully, I see the Hope of Easter coming, rising in the sun’s faint glow in the far beyond…
This painting emerged within sorrow’s gentle but definite grip. In less than 4 painfully serene hours, it emerged, complete and eerily beautiful, speaking more than words can ever express.
This painting did its perfect work….and here’s the paradox…I feel the catharsis of pain and joy!
