Things will never be normal again. There will be a new normal that we'll need to get used to. The process will be heart-wrenching.

I feel deflated but inspite of that, I haven't lost hope. Through the misery, I see a lot of good in this world. The good that I don't deserve but I still experience. There will be a void in our hearts but the rest of it will be filled with hope. Hope that one day it will be alright. This too shall pass.

For now, I am here to grieve.
