WHEN WILL THINGS GET BETTER? Motivation For Widows and Straight Talk // One Happy Widow

When will things get better? I get asked this often, so I made this video as a form of motivation for widows and also some straight talk. Maybe even some tough love. I'm putting on my Mama Hat today and giving you some things to think about.

I just want to share this quote I read today. “Healing doesn’t mean the loss didn’t happen. It means that it no longer controls us.” ~ David Kessler

[@brendad.1017]

Very powerful quote. Thank you for sharing. 🦋🕊️

[@jlr4905]

I would allow myself one day to “wallow”. No shower or getting dressed, etc. But the next day, get up, shower, get something accomplished. You are right on when you say you can give yourself permission to grieve but set a limit. Mine was one day (a 24 hour period). Then the next day I knew I had to “live”. You checked all the boxes in this video. I’m coming up on 4 years and the good days definitely out number the bad days. You never get over it and going thru it is the only way to heal. No one wants to hear this, but it’s true. Thanks for telling it like it is.

[@OneHappyWidow]

Thanks so much for your feedback- it helps me to know if it’s helping others or not. #widfam

[@sandrajshutter2205]

I lost my husband 6 months ago and this is one the worst pains. If you you don’t take control of your life others will do it for you, that’s why you have to stand up and move forward with sadness and tears This attitude is what your loved one wants you to take. All wounds heal 🙏

This was an excellent video. My husband died on May 29, 2023. About a week ago I started listening to some TED talks on grief. One statement that resounded with me was “Instead of crying that your marriage is over, smile that it happened.” Now that I have found One Happy Widow, I listen to one every day and can already see the changes just after THREE days! Thanks for your transparency and support.

Aw, Javelina. I am so sorry it’s so new and fresh for you. My sweet man died in March so it’s been 3 months+. I have 9 grown kids who have been a huge support. They helped me through moving to a condo, selling our family home. I am doing okay, tho I miss my husband and it’s lonely. It’s still so new for you. Give it time, my dear.

[@ruthtweedie3275]

I feel for you so much. I am in to my eleventh month but I can clearly remember those first few days. All I can say to you is that although it may seem impossible right now, there will be better days ...or moments. Just follow the advice and get through the hour, the day ...lots of hugs

[@florenceknight420]

Same here😭💔its been almost 2months since my better half passed away..im loosing hope,im still indenial,it hurts so bad everytime i miss him😭💔

[@diannabenson819]

First of all, it’s been a year and one-half for me. A few weeks ago I made u my mind that I choose not to cry every day for the rest of my life and my love for my husband is not measured by the amount of tears that I cry. I have been forcing myself to be around people and do new things. I sometimes realize I have actually enjoyed myself. He’s not coming back and although I still have my moments and sometimes I still cry but I’m trying to live. I’m still having to make myself but it’s a start. Thx for the words today. You always say something that seems just for me.

[@OneHappyWidow]

Thanks so much for our feedback, and I’m so profound of you for making this turn! This is exactly what we need to do- decide to feel better, instead of waiting for it to just happen. #widfam

Excellent thank you Leo. Sometimes just doing very basic little tasks ( eg washing the dishes) helps to show us we are still alive and trying to live today...because look! we just did something , that one little task. It' s not helpful therefore to have servants who do everything for us ( as used to happen in the past) enabling us to stay in bed/ in our grief pity party.

Thank you for this video. I really needed this as I was having a bad few days where the tears just wanted to fall, from feeling overwhelmed with all that needs to be done. I miss the security of my husband. I’m at 19 months and I felt that I was going backwards. I realize now that it’s okay to allow the tears and feeling sad for awhile,then I push myself forward and doing one chore at a time. Now I know what to do when the panic try’s to attack me. So thank you for sharing ❤

[@OneHappyWidow]

So glad the video was helpful. Thanks for watching #widfam!

[@truelily7]

Easier for me because I am retired but one thing that helps me is not to do what I don't have to do if I don't want to. I may have to send out bills or mow the lawn but I don't have to go to baby shower or show up for something I don't feel like. People will just have to understand. You can find your own examples. A friend wanted to rent a room from me. I politely refused because I am not set up for that and don't want to live with anyone. Just no! I don't want to date. Just no! I don't want to become a minimalist. Just no! You get the idea. And I refuse to o get caught up in family dramas. I care but nothing I can really do about most or all of their issues. I am almost seventy, a widow living on a small income and I am going to do as I please. I spent years caregiving, working jobs, some low pay and hard, raising grandkids, giving away money. I lost the love of my life and I have to accept that. Now I plan to relax as much as possible. Great advice about being present and in Now. You are far out Leo!

I lost my friend and “boyfriend” since 8th grade and husband of 38 years 18 months ago. It’s still so VERY hard and the rollercoaster of emotions are still so VERY real. I’ve listened and continue to listen to many different Pod Casts on Loss of a Spouse but yours BY FAR has touched on how I’ve felt and am feeling better than any other to date. I was having a very sad day today and I listen to Pod Casts on a daily to help get me through the work day but today God put yours in my path and I’m so grateful that He did.🙏🏽🙌🏽

Love the new camera and lighting. This was a great topic and I needed this today. Was feeling yucky. For some reason I felt " well ok, I have done my year, which was the 22nd, so I should kind of feel a bit better, less sad" but holy moly, today was a rough one. I plan to practice the ( grounding in your senses) excercises to destress. Somedays are better than others though. I can't say that I am sad all of the time. Thank you for all that you do. Big Love.

Love your videos & they really iron out many truths.👍Just one observation with regards to being in the valley of grief & then picking yourself up, & saying "Ok, that's my grief done for today, on with living" - while that is a very good tip, to help us move forward & begin a more helpful approach toward healing....the sadness can suddenly come back again, like a punch in the belly...It's not always done for the day. This gives the feeling of a pressure & expectation through compartmentalising our grief. It takes time to get up & even realise you are wallowing. But of course, one mustn't wallow in pain too long - & it's a difficult habit to break. Becoming aware is key.😊

I came across this when my husband died in 2/23, and as i sat thete on my couch in the deepest agony, i followed her directions. I was actually able to calm down and get through that day. Because of this woman's help, I've been able to move through my grief and keep living and working. We have to convince ourselves to do the things we need to do Follow her directions in this video, and you will be able to deal with the terrifying grief. Thank you so much.

Then developed renal failure, internal bleeding, and multiple strokes!! I didn't want to give up, but I couldn't watch him suffer!! I said "God, I can't do this anymore" I knew , I had to let him go!! I could have just him on life suppirt to keep him here but that would have been selfish, today I keep wishing tgat i had kept him here another day, just one more day, one more hour, one more minute to let him know how much he was loved!!

Sounds like you are stuck in complicated grief. I have a few videos about that too #widfam

[@BUBBLESPOGO]

Everything is going to be alright, maybe not today, but eventually. This is a quote I found. Please, If you're suffering, keep listening to this video and immediately do her steps if you're in the throes of deep agony over the loss of your loved one. July 16, 2023 will be 5 months since my beloved husband unexpectedly died on me. I came across this video a week after he died, and it absolutely saved me from going under. If it wasn't for this lovely, compassionate woman, I wouldn't be alive today. Because of her videos, especially this one, I am actually finally vmoving forward with the extremely hard work of moving through the grief process to a peaceful acceptance. Yesterday, I listened to the video again, and it was the first time I felt I could see some light above this very dark pit of agonizing grief. I still have a ways to go, but I can not stay in this dark pit, or it will put me in the grave also. Im very serious. I'm so sorry for everyone who has lost loved ones. May your grief journey be as short as possible, and may all the loving memories comfort you. God bless and take care.

@@OneHappyWidow thank you. It's due to you that I feel this way. I never realized that severe grief is a hard journey you have to work through. I've never lost someone so precious to me. The loss of my husband is the most devastating trauma I've ever experienced. The suffering is mind-boggling, but it's starting to get better bit by bit like a heavy traffic jam that starts to unclog, and the moving slowly begins and the momentum speeds up until your finally not stuck in one place anymore. If it wasnt for you and the videos, I wouldn't be here today. I'm an introvert and lone, so I don't feel comfortable in groups. However, thank you so much for all your efforts. They are so precious to me. Take care.

I wonder if you would consider removing the music sound track. Trying to focus on my senses - kept hearing the music. Had to stop your video.

Thank you for the feedback, I no longer use music behind the videos. I am sorry that you are in this state, and I feel like you might need to talk to someone. Do you have someone you can contact?
