A Gentle Word from Kinyatta:
“One thing that’s helped me personally over the years is honoring my heavenly mother the day before Mother’s Day. I call it ‘Her Day.’ I visit her resting place, replace her flowers, look through old photos, maybe write her a note. It helps release some of the sting, so I can be fully present with my children when they want to love on me the next day.”
Everyone’s grief journey is unique. What brings peace for one may not work for another—and that’s okay. The most important thing is to find what honors you and your healing.
This year, whether you’re buying a gift for a friend or simply being tender with your own heart, remember:
Grief and joy can co-exist. You deserve to feel both.
From our hive to yours.
With love always,
The Heart of Miss Bee, Inc. 🐝
