BEATING LOSS


Loss is a part of life that everyone experiences at some point. It can take many forms, such as the loss of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the loss of a cherished possession. Regardless of the specific form it takes, loss can be a difficult and painful experience that can have a profound impact on a person's emotional and mental well-being.

One of the most common forms of loss is the loss of a loved one. The death of a family member or close friend can be one of the most difficult experiences a person can go through. The grief and sadness that comes with such a loss can be overwhelming, and it can take a long time to come to terms with the loss and move forward.

Another common form of loss is the loss of a job. Losing one's source of income and sense of purpose can be a difficult and stressful experience. It can lead to feelings of uncertainty, anxiety, and depression.

The loss of a cherished possession, such as a home or a favorite piece of jewelry, can also be difficult, representing the loss of memories and a sense of security. All these are legitimate humane feelings.

Regardless of the specific form it takes, loss can be a difficult and painful experience with a profound impact on a person's emotional and mental well-being. It's important to understand that dealing with loss is a process, and it can take time.

There is no knowing how long it may take to grieve and heal after a loss as everyone has their own unique way of coping with it. Some people find comfort in talking to friends and family, while others may prefer to be alone and process their emotions privately. Some may find solace in spirituality, while others may find comfort in therapy or counseling.

However one choses to process it, it's important to remember that there is no right or wrong way to grieve. It's also needful that people be patient with themselves, and to know that it's okay to take the time needed to heal.

In summary, Loss is a part of life that everyone experiences at some point, and it can take many forms. It's important to understand that dealing with loss is a process, and it can take time. There is no set time frame for how long it takes to grieve and heal after a loss. Everyone has their own unique way to cope with it, so be patient with yourself and find what works best for you. Don't hesitate to reach out for support and professional help if needed.

Ndidi Adekunle

Ndidi Olamide Adekunle, the Lord's Handmaiden as she likes to be remembered, is first a woman hungry for the truth of God, then a loving wife to a Missionary Evangelist, mother to three growing kids, a Consultant for the Education industry in her country Nigeria, and an Intentional Parenting advocate.

In that order.

She's had her fair share of  life's trials and tests and has come to know for herself without a doubt, the efficacy of God's word given to man, and of the blood of Jesus shed for man.

Having come to understand also, that the mind and heart of Abba Father, is an intimate relationship with His people. As such, His standing plan for the restoration of all things, to man, here on earth, and ultimately in the New Creation.

Where sin abounds, His grace doth much more abound.

This she knows, is Truth and desires that all may come to the same practical understanding, and together we may walk in it, and grow in it.

So help us God.
