This experience reminded me that grief doesn’t follow a timeline. This will be my 8th Christmas without Kevin, and I’ve learned to live with grief by allowing my emotions to flow rather than holding them back.

For those moments, I recommend Tonglen - an ancient Buddhist practice that teaches compassion for yourself and others. It has been a lifesaver for me during unexpected grief waves on buses, planes, or trains.
