There comes a time in everyone's grief where we need to focus on positive things that make a difference in peoples lives. Whether it is going on a missions trip like I did or getting involved in a health care organization as a volunteer you need to find out yourself which organization to divert your grief and sorrow into a positive direction.
To get to that point takes time. There is no unwritten rule regarding how long grief should last. The length of time you grieve is as unique as your loss. As you fill your Kleenex's with tears just remember that time is your greatest Allie. In time you will find the inner strength to move forward. In time the tears of sorrow will turn into tears of joy as you remember with fondness the loved one who has died. In time your grief will be used to help others who grieve once you recover from your pain. The organizations I have included under this tab are some of the organizations you might consider to give your time, money and energy too, or you may have other organizations that come to your mind as you read these links.
