[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 760421, member: 18958"] I am nobody to talk. My mother died 7.5 years ago and I was very sad and did not work for a long, long time. I mourned many years. I went in and out of grief. I thought I was through it and then another wave came. But I will tell you what helps me. I listen to music I love day and night. I even bring the speakers into the yard with me, when I water or garden. I am lucky because there is a type of music that I just love. It takes me to the heart of myself. To my soul. I feel complete when I listen to this music. Complete and content. There is no other music that I respond to in this way. It is Portuguese Fado music. Most of it is sad and mournful. But to me, it is beautiful. It talks about loss and union with G-d, and yearning and longing. I can't imagine having lived my life and not having found it. Until I found this music I seldom listened to music. Could you begin to listen on Spotify to different kinds of music, maybe even world music, and see if something touches you? I also garden and I walk. Each of these things helps me. I am glad you posted about this Crayola. I am so very sorry for your loss. [/QUOTE]
