Still With Me: Grief Keepsake

This journal was created to meet you wherever you are in your grief.

Inside, you will find several sections designed to support different parts of the grieving process. You may move through them in any order. There is no right way and no timeline you must follow.

Some days, you may respond to a prompt.
Some days you may write freely.
Some days, you may read a scripture or reflect on a memory.

Use the Dream Log if your loved one visits you in dreams.
Use the Ways to Feel Close pages when you want to feel connected to them.
Use the Monthly Check-In to notice how your heart is changing over time.

You may write, sketch, reflect, cry, or sit quietly with the pages.

This journal is not about “moving on.”
It is about honoring love, remembering deeply, and learning to carry grief in a way that allows life to continue.

Take your time.

From the Author

This journal was created from a very personal place.

Grief has a way of changing everything. It alters the rhythm of our days, the way we remember, and the way we carry love for someone who is no longer physically here.

During my own experience with loss, I realized that grief is not something we “get over.” Instead, it becomes something we learn to live with, understand, and slowly make space for.

I am not a grief expert or therapist. I am simply someone who understands how heavy loss can feel and how important it is to have a place to release those emotions.

I created this journal as a gentle companion for anyone walking through grief. A place where memories can be written, emotions can be expressed, and love can continue to exist on the page.

If you are holding this journal because you lost someone you love, I want you to know this:

Your grief is valid.
Your memories matter.
And the love you shared does not disappear.

In many ways, the people we lose remain a part of us.

They are still with us.
