People handle grieve in different ways and it’s recommended to everyone so that there is closure and someone can move on.
Yesterday was nana Catherine’s burial and I met many of my relatives that I had not seen in a long time. The ceremony began in good time and during the viewing of the body nothing dramatic happened, there was just that quite sadness but I was impressed by my ten year old cousin who was able to calmly say goodbye.
When her casket was lowered to the ground, one of my cousins refused to leave the grave site and cried uncontrollably and even insulted the people who were burying her asking them what they were doing to nana, she could not be comforted no matter what anybody said.
My mama didn’t cry, I guess her pain is greater than any tears .After all she lost her mum.
There were great grand children of nana who cried because they saw others cry.
As for me as I said farewell, I was engraved by so much sadness and I cried softly as we sent her on a new journey resting in peace.
How do you grieve?
