Truth here 👇from Maria Shriver and her daughter.
"THESE are the days!"đź’–

My daughter sent me this picture taken several years ago yesterday afternoon. When I got it, I responded to her by saying, “Those were the days.” Her response back to me schooled me!

She said, “Mommy, let’s reword that. These are the days. These are the days right now — the days you’re in! These are the days.” She’s so absolutely right. I’m so grateful to be in THESE days. I can still throw my head back, laugh, look up at the sky, and so can you, wherever you are, whatever age you are. These are the days! Thank you sweetheart for schooling me straight. Let’s not just reminisce, let’s keep on living!

Letting go isn’t about forgetting—it’s about choosing what keeps space in our hearts. Hold onto your beautiful memories.

Healing isn't about wiping the slate clean—it's about learning what to leave behind and what to treasure.

Time and mindset aren't a cure, but they do provide strength that can eventually help ease a heavy load, allowing us to ultimately carry what is good.

People often talk about how hard it is to go back to the grocery store after someone dies. And they're right. But grief doesn't stop at the grocery store.

For me, it was the men's department.
Every time I went to the mall, I'd wander through the golf shirts to see if my husband's favorite brand was on sale. It wasn't a chore. It was one of the many quiet ways I took care of him.

After he died, I walked past those same racks of shirts. It took my breath away.
In an instant, I realized I would never buy him another shirt. Never wonder if he'd like the color. Never smile because I'd found a great bargain.

What had once been a simple act of love had become a painful reminder of everything that had changed.

Now, I use a different entrance to the mall so I don't have to walk past the men's department. To someone else, it probably doesn't make sense.

To a griever, it makes perfect sense. Grief doesn't only live in anniversaries and holidays.
It lives in grocery aisles.
In hardware stores.
In the passenger seat of the car.
In the cereal they always ate.
In the shampoo they used.
In the men's department.

These ordinary places become extraordinary reminders of an extraordinary love.
And if, for a while, avoiding them is what you need to protect your heart...That's okay.

Healing doesn't mean forcing yourself to walk through every trigger before you're ready. Sometimes healing means giving yourself permission to take another entrance.

Always go to the funeral.
Always go to the care facility.
Always go to visit.
You don't need to know what to say.
Simply and quietly show up.

Just go.

In times of profound crisis,
people don't remember your words,
they only remember whether you
showed up for them
at their lowest moment.
