Holding On ... (PRIVATE GROUP) Walking with others through loss, grief & mourning. Living again. Moderated By: Trina Daniels Members: 90 Created On: Dec 27, 2006 There's many different types of losses. All are painful. Each member of this group unfortunately has one thing in common, they've experienced great pain. Some through... Miscarriage, Stillbirth, Neo-natal, Early Infant Loss, Child, Friend, Relative, Husband, Wife, Grandparent... and others through... Career, Status, Position This is a safe place where things can be discussed without judgement being passed and without trite answers. We are not experts or counselors. We are just others who have learned not to go it alone and that we need God. We hope to encourage others not to go through the school of hard knocks. We don't have answers, just prayer, support and hopefully encouragement. Grief is a necessity and a privilege. It is a result of giving and receiving love. Bereaved literally means to be torn apart. Everyone is welcome to share, grieve, mourn and find comfort on your journey. This is also a place to find help as you walk alongside someone. This doesn't mean that we live sad and miserable lives forever. It does mean that we are permitted to experience our emotions and feelings. We are working toward learning to live a new life full of joy even though we have a hole in our heart. This group is marked PRIVATE so the pictures, names and topics are only viewed by members. The setting of PRIVATE is ONLY to allow a "safer" place for people to share in a little more privacy. ANYONE who wants to join and share is WELCOME. No invitation required. Just click join.
