I seem to be very two-minded these days. How do you make a big division during a period of grief?
Zanna Smith
If there is any way to postpone making the big decision until some of the confusion grief normally brings has subsided, do that. One way to approach the decision (or division) is to talk it over with a neutral person, one who has no interest in the outcome and who is nonjudgmental. Another way is to scribble random thoughts about the decision until an insight or two are reached.

Another way is to scribble random thoughts about the decision until an insight or two are reached. Write these insights on a separate page. Let the decision rest on the paper for a few hours or overnight, and allow your mind to think of other things or nothing or sleep. In the morning look at these insights, and allow other insights to come. Write these down. No one has to see any of this. Trust your mind to know which is the better decision, if there is one.
Remember: just because you thought something doesn’t mean it is necessarily true, so check your insights for truth and strength.
