#13: What is 'coping'?
Coping does not mean that we will ever be cured of our heartbreak and sadness. However, when the heartbreak begins to consume us and the tears seem to endlessly fall, it is how we recognize and move forward in those moments that constitute coping.
I do not ever want to give a bereaved parent/family/friend false hope. The sadness will always be there. Some days are easier than others as time moves forward.
Recognizing when we're falling, learning to pull ourselves from the trenches of despair, and marching forward in attempts to live again, are possible.
