I’ve experienced various kinds of grief. The kind that has you saying goodbye to loved ones that have passed, the kind that asks you to mourn people who are still alive, to sit with spiritual disillusionment, and to reckon with endings that don’t offer clean closure. Divorce and breakups can fracture shared meaning, routines, and support systems. Community loss can leave you questioning where you belong and whether it’s safe to trust again. Losing a loved one, a community, a spiritual home, a marriage, or long-term relationship can feel disorienting because what’s gone isn’t a person—it’s belonging, identity, and the life you imagined living inside that space. Finding meaning after this kind of loss is about allowing grief to be honest and layered. It’s about honoring what was real, naming what caused harm, and slowly rebuilding a sense of connection that’s grounded in truth rather than nostalgia.
