Yes, I dropped the ball on my two blogs a week. It is true, I’m human just like the warriors I work with. Interestingly, I learned a lot about myself and why I dropped the ball.

What happened was my grandmother died. One of two in their 90s, she is the first to pass. She’s a woman who taught me about love and relationships more than anything. Honestly, in many ways I owe the success of my relationship with my husband to her.

This truly is a first major loss for me. I have other family members that have passed, and I was definitely sad. This time I feel a part of my spirit is gone. And with that the grieving process started.

My last visit 10 days before she died

Interestingly, I’m working with a very special coach who specializes in hand analysis. We had a session during the time when I wasn’t doing much. She help me understand a part of me that can swing into sadness and depression, and for who I am, the best way to get out of it is to dive back into meaningful work.

Most people will tell you to grieve, take time off, be sad if you need to. She told me I probably need to write a book!

And here I am two days later at least back into blogging! Why? Because when I share with others I heal inside. Do you have that awareness about you? Understanding that only builds my self-worth and confidence. I know I’m still sad inside. I do, though, feel better when I share what I know and
help those that work with me.
