I Didn't Post Last Mother's Day Because I Didn't Want to Be a Downer | Road to Mother's Day: 12 Days Left

from My Mom Died

Last year, Gabri opened Instagram, picked a photo of her mom, started typing, and then just sat there staring at her phone. Worried people were thinking, "Okay, we get it, your mom is dead."In this diary entry, she talks about the specific guilt of posting about grief on a day that's supposed to be happy, why staying quiet doesn't feel right either, and why if your Mother's Day post is heavier than everyone else's, that just means you're telling the truth.Post the picture. Then put the phone down.12 days out. A new diary entry every day until Mother's Day. 💜 Stay ConnectedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mymomdiedpodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mymomdiedpod🎥 Watch on YouTubeSubscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@MyMomDiedPodcast🩵 Join The Grief Club (Patreon)Become a member on Patreon: https://apt205.store/products/it-came-with-me📖 Get the Poetry BookStore: https://apt205.store/products/it-came-with-me📬 Join the CommunitySign up for the newsletter:https://mailchi.mp/179400ef58c5/my-mom-died🕊️ Share Your StoryHave a story about grief or healing you’d like to share?
