Volunteering after loss of loved one
Volunteering, like joining a grief support group, is an important question and ultimately a personal decision. A lot depends on whether you are ready to become a volunteer and what you are interested in doing. Try something you would enjoy and see if it works. Recognize your strengths and limitations. If you are home-bound, there are virtual volunteer activities out there that are rewarding. See how it goes. If it works, good. If not, feel free to see what would be a better fit for you. Like most things I experienced on this grievance journey, there are no right or wrong answers. Like the road we are all traveling, there may a need for a course correction to get a better feel for what we want to do with our time and interests. Good luck to all. Sue
