Guilty You’re Carrying On

The sense of guilt when it comes to grieving somebody is so prevalent and it can surface in many different ways.

February is the month that I start to get out in my garden and that is something I desperately want to talk to my dad about. I find that I'm in a constant battle between the guilt and the sense of gratitude I should feel that I'm fortunate enough to be carrying on with my life when he isn't able to.  

As we get older sometimes our hobbies and interests can bypass our parents, and they might be supportive but they don’t really ‘get it’.

When you find that thing that you both love and then they’re not there anymore to talk about it, it’s hard and it can make doing that hobby feel a little tough on us mentally.
