I stumbled on a contest on the Ladies of Hive community and I had to just come up with some words to answer the prompt.
How do you recover from emotional pain or Grief?
This is a big question because I am still trying to recover from a certain grief, Recently we lost one of our course mate in school just a day to our final exams , its really was a sad thing for the whole of our department because we never imagined that such a thing could before us as a class, we had alot of things planned out for our signout week , only for My course mate to be shot at the front of the school gate.
The pains, his death left the whole class , even the class WhatsApp group hasn't been functioning since his death , even after the last exam the next day Everyone just went home because there was nothing to be joyful about. No one could read the night before the last paper, I just imagine if we his course mate were grieving him that much , I wonder how his parents and close family would feel.
This recent grief isn't so easy to recover from , the only time I know I lost someone news my grandpa and then I was still much younger , I didn't know how to feel then .But now with my friend's death, I'm still trying to process how I feel because his death cuts really so deep, since last Thursday I have had numerous dreams about him and how he will walk to my seat to talk to me, he will say Umma ,we will not fail this class, have faith imagine he still told me this before exam started and now he is gone from this world , killed in a brutal way that has everyone thinking what did he do to deserve such a death.
Grieving is painful , I have not recovered, but I know that time Will tell and , time does heal any wound. This I do believe.
