In this image, a little dragon stands at the beginning of a winding staircase. Each step is marked with a word: denial, anger, bargaining, depression.
The staircase leads upward toward the sunrise, reminding us that grief is not a straight road, but a journey walked step by step.
Grief Has Many Faces
Grief doesn’t look the same for everyone. Some days, it may feel like denial — struggling to accept what has happened.
Other days, it may rise as anger, bargaining, or deep sadness. Each stage is part of the process, and none of them are wrong.
The Journey Is Not Linear
The dragon shows us an important truth: grief is not a ladder you climb once. You may revisit the same steps again and again.
Healing comes not from rushing through, but from allowing yourself to take the journey at your own pace.
Hope at the Horizon
At the top of the staircase, the light of a new day shines. This sunrise symbolizes hope — the reminder that healing can grow even in the midst of loss.
Though the pain may never fully vanish, love and light can walk with you as you continue forward.
Princess Crystal Says…
Grief is a journey of many steps, and it’s okay to take them one at a time. Be gentle with yourself, trust the process, and remember that even in sorrow, hope is waiting on the horizon.
💜 If you are grieving, please know you don’t have to walk this path alone. Reach out to someone you trust, or a supportive community, and allow yourself to be carried by love and light.
With love and light,
Crystal Amon
