Excerpt
One of the toughest tasks for people to face is that of what to do with their loved one’s belongings. The “rules” are the same here as for everything else with grief- there are no rules. Some people tackle this right away, others avoid it for years. There really isn’t a right or wrong way to accomplish this. Personally, I tackled it right away and found it a good way to process and heal my loss. Below are some of my thoughts regarding this.
