From the first day,
We push, love, and pray.
Counting all fingers and toes,
Holding you, never letting go.
Watching and knowing,
Soon you’ll be gone, you’re growing.
Seeing myself in your eyes,
I help you walk, run, and rise.
To the world we let go - release,
Who you are now, giving me peace.
You are bright, sure to shine,
But no matter what, you’re always mine.

The feeling of emptiness and loneliness can bring a person to their knees. Don’t let someone in your life feel alone, like they have no one. They have you.
Be the one person that they can lean on and that can help pick them up from the floor. Be that person for them.
God may have put you on this earth for this one single moment in your life - to help this one person. #theoboyd #thinktheo #helpsomeone #grief #mygriefisnotlikeyours #griefbooks #authorsofinstagram #author #learningtolive #hope #signs

Today is the first day of my favorite time of year. Cooler days, shorter days, and a longer time of rest.
I hope you enjoy this new season we are in, and as we prepare for a holiday season, remember those around you that are hurting.
This can be from loss of a loved one, a pet, a job, or anything that creates an emptiness and a sense of loneliness that changes how we live our life.
What can you do? Be present for them when they need you. Give of yourself so they can lean and learn how to live again.
As the year winds down, finish strong by helping others. 💪 #theoboyd #griefbooks #mygriefisnotlikeyours #thinktheo #grief #loss #fall #learningtoliveagain #coping #loveremains #author #seasons #authorsofinstagram #love #faith

It’s normal. It’s called grieving, and it may look differently for each individual person. We all process loss in very unique ways. What’s important to remember is that grief is not something you can label with whatever you wish. We are just sad. Just grieving and sad. It’s that simple. Yes, that simple. #sad #joy #thinktheo #mygriefisnotlikeyours #grief #griefbooks #memories #loss #coping #learningtolive #authorsofinstagram ... See MoreSee Less

I just think this is beautiful…Emotions💔🙏❤️Robin Williams once said, “I think the people who have experienced the greatest sadness are the ones who always put the hardest effort to make others happy. "Because they know in their flesh what it feels like to feel desolate and down and they don't want anyone else to feel that way." 🌻🦋💗 ... See MoreSee Less

Today is National Grief Awareness Day. 💔🙏❤️1. Be present.
2. Listen to them.
3. Be present.
4. Listen to them.
5. Be present.
This may seem too simple. We always think we have to do something big or say something profound - we don’t.
Some of the most memorable moments, early on in my grief, were when a friend would be with me and listen to me, really listen.
Your presence matters. ... See MoreSee Less

"Momma, I wanna wear your lipstick."
I remember playing in your make-up when I was little.
You would smile and look at me, "When you grow up, you can wear lipstick."
Today, I went through your make-up drawer, noticing your colors, the colors of you. I looked in your mirror, imagining the last image it held was your face. I lifted your hair rollers to my nose, breathing in hard to get the scent of you, your shampoo. I took your brush and ran it through my hair, slowly and carefully, just the way you would do.
I continued to be curious and found several lipsticks, most of them almost empty. But I found this one, this one called "Mauve Moment" by Mary Kay. It was alone, separated from the others. As I continued to investigate, I realized this is the one you wore last. It had to be!
I held it to my face, smelled it, and touched it to my mouth, trying to feel you once more. I moved its perfect form, left to right across my lips and let your color, color me. As I pursed my lips together to even out the shade, I could taste the salt from my sadness, covering me like a gloss.
But for a few minutes today, I was your little girl again.

My mom passed 29 years ago. I was 42. I have her lipstick in my make up drawer and smile every morning when I see it.
Awww, I love this...I have also done the same with my mommas lipstick
Oh, this is so beautiful. It is amazing how many little things remind of us of someone so special. I started selling Mary Kay in June, and this pulled on my heart strings so bad. Please, if there is ever anything I can send you to remind you of her let me know! I would love to send it to you as a gift. You’re posts are so beautiful , and I pray for you often. Thank you for sharing. 🥹💘
Beautiful ❤️.
Wonderful memories. 🙏 🙏

I had a dream last night,
a dream you were here.
When I got sad,
you held me near.
You were preaching a sermon,
I kept reaching - I was determined.
I needed to feel you alive again,
But when I got close, you said “Amen.”
We all sat in the church, crying,
But I wouldn’t stop trying.
Momma sat beside to hold me,
She said, “Don’t you see? He’s with
me.”
I woke up, a face wet from sorrow,
Knowing I must face today, tomorrow.
Last night, you came to see me.
I know! I believe!
You are loving me, even as I grieve.
