People who haven’t experienced deep grief often assume that when the bereaved start feeling joy again then they must be healed. This is far from true.

The truth is that life after the death of a loved one becomes a mixture of pain and joy, often at the same time—

—Joy because life still holds moments of it; and

—Pain because our loved one is not here to experience it with us

Far from contradictory, these two emotions and many others form the backdrop of experience in life after the death of one you love. And it’s messy and beautiful, all at the same time.

This glossy grief awareness sticker explain the duality of both the pain and joy that can exist in life after the death of a loved one.

Sticker Text: In life after loss, I hold pain and joy at the same time. Life is complicated that way, as am I.

This listing is for one (1) glossy sticker, 3.3″ wide x 2.9″ tall.
