Grief isn’t only for people. There is a version of your life you were promised, or you promised yourself, and it did not arrive.
“What would you have me know about the life I didn’t get?”
Some additional insights around this question:
- Describe the life you thought you’d have by now.
- What do you miss most about it — even though it never existed?
- What has the actual life given you that the imagined one couldn’t?
