Life happens so fast.. its been forever since i wrote down something here. I have been up to so many things(i have to get an excuse you know). In other news.. you guys need to visit Under the Radar- a cool place to have lunch or dinner.. they got nice food and a cool place for kids to play plus their services are on another level.Try it out you will love it.
I am privileged to be in a church that cares about the whole being of their congregation. CITAM Thikaroad. #IamCitam. So a month ago there was a healing service and I attended. A healing service is where you get the chance to heal the pain of loss, heart break and any kind of hurt.I n the service there is worship and prayer then a snack is served- they care about the stomach too, when you have had enough, we are grouped into groups of those with the similar heartaches- loss of parents, children, spouses, friends etc.
In the group you get to do a debrief- where you share the story of before during and after the death of your beloved. Its very therapeutic to the soul, body and mind. You get to relive the moments as you share and heal in the process- A problem shared is a problem half solved. Plus just learning that you are not alone really gets you going. I was actually so proud of myself, looking back to October 2015 till now I can not compare.. Time has gradually healed the wounds of loosing my beloved Mother. I can share the story and actually complete all my sentences. Am not yet there but am getting there.
Its been my exam week and I prefer having my exams in Thika campus, so I have been commuting to Thika everyday and for some reason it has been emotionally draining. I cant help but mourn... Mourn for my mother, for the time I would have had with her. my heart has been aching and my mind wandering. In a span of like 3 days I have made a few steps back and i have disappointed myself, but today morning I remembered something I learned during the healing service "mourning is a process, its gradual, a step a time. One day you are at acceptance, the other in denial. Live in the moment you will get there."
So yes.. I miss my mother, probably no day goes by with her being in my thoughts and I am mourning her. For those mourning and have recently lost loved ones- It will be okay, let your heart mourn for loved one. Its totally normal to feel hurt because they are gone. God is our comforter.
Psalms 147:3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
