I wanted to distract myself by buying clothes. Only after leaving the store did I realize that everything I’d chosen was funereal black.
I used to wear all black in my twenties but not since then. Today, though, only black outfits attracted me.

That’s the thing with grief… it demands its due and trying to avoid it doesn’t work. IME you just have to ride out the worst of it and start moving forward again when you can.

My favorite store, full of happy, colorful clothes. But you can’t trick the subconscious. If it wants to be grim, it will be.
