Keeping Busy Reviews
Working / Worked
It is important to keep busy; but don't run away from grieving. The best way I stay involved as well as doing healing work is to journal on a regular basis. After I have had a busy day, it is really important to try to get a good night's sleep!

I have gone back to work and I remember when he visited my work and he was wanting to buy a Dallas Cowboy Jersey and well i happen to pass by that section of the store I work @ and I see that jersey there and I am waiting to see him again.
I stay occupied or work on the computer for my photography business but it is so hard.

Durring th day I'd keep myself from thinking about it by keeping myself busy .. but then at night, or when I was alone, I'd just cry. I'd cry till my eyes couldn't make anymore tears.
