Why It Still Hurts — Even If It’s Been a While

Grief has no expiration date.

You might feel fine for months…
then one random day, you hear a sound, see an old photo, or pass their favorite spot—and suddenly, the wave hits again.

You’re not being dramatic.
You’re not being “too sensitive.”
You’re human.
And you loved deeply.

Here’s the thing:
Love creates space in your life.
And when that space is suddenly empty, it echoes in ways that surprise you—long after others think you should be “over it.”

That’s not weakness. That’s connection.
And it’s holy ground.

Paws of Grace exists to honor that.
To offer faith, truth, and tenderness for people walking through grief that others don’t always understand.

And if today hurts more than you expected, be kind to yourself.
You’re not alone.
