Everyone Grieves Differntly

A year ago in October I lost my best friends, my nana. I have been having a really hard time since I lost her on how to deal with everything. How can someone so important be in your life one minute and then the next they are gone? To me it is such confusing time. But that is life, and it is okay that you are having a hard time, even years after. Everyone grieves differently and as a person you have to learn how you yourself can cope the best way possible for you.

Going to visit the grave for me has been something that I have been struggling a lot with lately. To me I just do not feel my nana there. After listening to the Song " I Drive Your Truck" by Lee Brice, I didn't feel alone. In the song it goes, " And momma asked me this morning, if i'd been by your grave, But that flag and stone a'int where I feel you anyway"(Lee Brice). After listening to that song, I myself realized that it is okay if you need to take the time to heal before you go and see it for real. To me, seeing the name on the stone makes it harder. I live everyday trying to cope without my nana, and seeing that doesnt make it any better. I'm here to tell you if you are having teh same feelings thats okay. The stone is there for a remebernce and where they are laid to rest, for some people it is to hard to go and see it . And that is okay! Remember your loved ones are with you, even wehn you dont think they are. No matter how you are grieving know that it is okay and totaly normal.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
