Accepting the things I cannot control

12m · Graduating Grief- Finding Hope, Healing and JOY after Loss · 18 Oct 09:00

The  first line in the Serenity Prayer: God Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. Maybe we need to pray for accept those things for which we can't control as well.

Too often we find ourselves stuck in pain, suffering and grief, because we are always wanting people and things to be different from what they are.

We try to control the uncontrollable. And because we put our efforts into that, we feel miserable.

That's the topic of this episode. It's a quick listen with a lot of good takeaway tidbits for you.

Does Grief Ever Go Away?

Does grief ever go away? That is a question just about every grieving person wants to know, that's because it's one of the most googled questions about grief out there.

When you have lost someone you love, you can be in so much pain, you just want it to end. And yet so many people will tell you that it lasts the rest of your life. Hearing that can be devastating. So in this episode, I talk about what I believed at first, when I lost my son Brandon. And what I believe now and how I have come to my current belief. I hope you will find it inspiring and hope-filled as you journey through your grief to hope and healing.
