Regaining hope in the world #CHANNELKINDNESS
I really loved reading the inspiring stories in Lady Gaga (and the Born This Way Foundation's) new book, Channel Kindness. A particular favourite to read hit me hard. This year I lost 2 grandparents and my sister. Grief has hit me hard and I have truly struggled to stand strong. I read 'memories can sometimes be the best medicine' in the book, and it helped me realise that sometimes you need to remember and write down your memories in order to help the grief settle. The story follows Kensey and the creation of her grief journals for fellow students. Such a simple concept of helping to remember the good times is one of the best I have heard. My grief is not gone, but I have learned to channel it better now. I know I can Channel Kindness in whatever I am doing and learn to help others through grief too. Thank you @macmillankidsuk
