Grieving
Before the loss of my son,
I didn't realize what a tricky
question "how are you?" is
it can be simple one second
as you answer "I'm good"
but the next minute,
you could be engulfed by grief
or have a flashback of trauma
or even just a sweet memory
could overtake you
and the answer changes to
"I'm struggling!"
