The Cemetery

I’ve struggled a lot with feeling the need to go to the cemetery to “talk” to him or to feel close to him again. I know that his body is there and that’s where we laid him to rest but I also know that he isn’t there any longer. I know that he is in heaven with God. I hate feeling like I need to memorialize this “place” where we laid him to rest. This doesn’t feel biblical to me but I do like having a place where I can go to talk to him. It’s a place that I can place flowers and take care of since he is no longer here. There’s something helpful about having this place and these tasks to do that I find rewarding and comforting. While it may not be appropriate for some, I will keep doing it at this time as I do feel like it’s helping me in my grieving process.
