Grieving takes time.

Grieve, take your time in doing so. Always remember to pick yourself of. Antwan I’m sorry this happened to you cousin. This was not supposed to be like this.

Until we meet again. Continue watching over your mom and siblings as we all mourn the loss of you.

To be absent in the flesh is to be present with the lord. We love you.

... Read moreGrieving the loss of a loved one, like Antwan Davenport, is an emotional journey that many face but few discuss openly. It's essential to understand that grief is not a linear process; it varies for each individual. Important aspects of grieving include allowing yourself to feel sadness, anger, or confusion. It’s common to experience a myriad of emotions and acknowledging them is the first step toward healing. Furthermore, engaging in memorial activities, such as creating a scrapbook or lighting a candle, can help in processing feelings. Connecting with support groups can also be beneficial, as sharing your experiences can foster a sense of community and understanding. Remember, taking your time in the grieving process is vital—everyone heals at their own pace. Lastly, consider focusing on ways to honor your loved one's legacy. Whether it's through charitable acts or creating traditions in their memory, these practices can provide comfort and a sense of purpose during difficult times. Always remember: you are not alone in this journey, and there is support available whenever you need it.

Grieving the loss of someone who’s still alive
Losing someone important to you due to their own choices can be one of the most difficult experiences any human could endure. The sheer part of letting go is the hardest. Why would you let go of someone that’s still there? Doesn’t that show YOU’VE given up? Or maybe you agree to the choice as well?

You think you’re ANGRY. But you’re grieving 🤔
Underneath anger… there’s always grief. And no one ever taught you how to tell the difference. You weren’t “too emotional.” You were grieving. And no one noticed. They said you had “anger issues.” But no one ever asked what your rage was protecting. No one ever saw the child in the fire.
