GRIEF:

~

We're striving for acceptance of ourselves, our past, other people,
and our present circumstances while in recovery. Acceptance
brings serenity and freedom – the freedom to take care of
ourselves.

Acceptance is not a one-step process. Before we achieve acceptance,
there are stages of denial, anger, negotiating, and sadness. We call
these stages the grief process. Grief can be frustrating. It can be
confusing. We may vacillate. Others may not understand us. We
may neither understand ourselves nor our own behavior while
we're grieving our losses. Then one day, things become clear.

Don't worry. If we are taking steps to take care of ourselves, we
will move through this process at exactly the right pace. Be
understanding with yourself and others for the very human way
we go through transition.
