“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”— Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Acceptance, Healing and Rebuilding after Grief and Loss
Acceptance and Moving on After Grief and Loss |
Acceptance, Healing and Rebuilding after Grief and Loss : Image Copyright Vernon Chalmers |
“The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.” — Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and David Kessler
This quote by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and David Kessler are having a significant impact on my understanding and processing of grief and loss during the last 18 months.
A Perspective on Closure
I use many quotes on my Mental Health and Motivation website, all of them are special, but this quote gave me real perspective and closure.
“The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.” — Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and David Kessler
I respect the fact that different people will interpret the same quote differently, for different losses. I have read the Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and David Kessler quote 6 months after publishing my “A Year After Leaving an Abusive and Toxic Relationship' and in total 18 months after I walked away from what I considered (at the time) of what would of been the rest of my life.
I have integrated their quote as an update / conclusion 6 months after my original article. The timing for a complete understanding of their words came absolutely at the right time.
Hopefully some of you may also find comfort in their words should there be such need.
Hopefully some of you may also find comfort in their words should there be such need.
Acceptance, healing and rebuilding
What made the acceptance so much more sustainable was the realisation that the grief of losing someone special does not have to go away. What did go away eventually was my fear of letting go. This quote by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and David Kessler provided me with the necessary perspective and solace for moving on - “The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.”

You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same nor would you want to.”
Having accepted the undercurrent ebb and flow presence of my grief I find myself thinking less and less of this specific grief (and person). The ever-consuming dark thoughts of grief and loss made way for more coherent thinking and mindful living of being in the moment - focussing on the daily awareness of here and now... It took me more than 18 months of introspection, reflection and soul searching to finally arrive at the other side of this profound and self-enriching journey.

Abuse and Trauma : Abusive Behaviour and Domestic Violence Resources
“It is not the the bruises on the body that hurt. It is the wounds of the heart and the scars on the mind.” ― Aisha Mirza
Male and Female Domestic Violence
Trauma associated with Abuse / Domestic Violence
Abused Men (Trauma Bonding) and Gender-Based Violence (in Adult Relationships)
My Experience with Abuse, Domestic Violence and associated Trauma
During the past 18 months I have gained a substantial amount of personal experience and perspective from being on the receiving end of an abusive relationship (that ended in August 2020). After my detachment from this dramatic trauma bond I spent more than a year reading / researching various articles, books and online resources for gaining a better understanding of abuse, domestic violence and eventual management of the associated trauma. I also started journaling about the abusive behaviour against me here on the Mental Health and Motivation website.I spiralled into the dark abyss of my own cognitive dissonance, consumed by the FOG* of leaving and the never-ending rumination that left me mentally immobilised for weeks at a time. My mental state was further challenged by the sad event of my best friend, Joseph Inns, who passed away during this time.
Through reading, sheer determination and my support system (of family and friends) the benefit of time slowly turned the infinite upside-down puzzle piece by piece around in my mind. Its only lately that I'm able see a more integrated and complete picture - a clear vision of what life should be without the toxicity of abuse and domestic violence.
The insight gained assisted me for coming to terms with the possible cause and reason(s) why someone would be so ferociously induced by their shameless brutality of abusive and violent behaviour for demanding attention, maintaining control, staying relevant, overcoming disappointment and / or getting their selfish needs met. Abusive and Violent Behaviour Towards Me
I ignored the obvious and silent red flags during the relationship for far too long. I should have known beter and should have acted much sooner. Relationship Red Flags I Ignored for Months
I trust that some of these resources will also be beneficial to other men and women around the world who have been subjected to similar abuse, domestic violence and / or are currently still living with the unfortunate traumatic consequences. I learned a lot from my own (relationship) codependency behavioural vulnerabilities as well. Achievements / Lessons from an Abusive Relationship* FOG (Fear | Obligation | Guilt)
