Five of Cups As Advice

Grieve what you have lost, but do not forget what remains. Turn around and see the cups that are still standing.

Allow yourself to feel the loss fully. Then, when you are ready, redirect your attention to the blessings that remain. Seek support from people who care about you.

Do not get stuck in grief or self-pity. Do not isolate yourself from the support that is available. And do not define your life by what you have lost.

If you are mourning a relationship, give yourself permission to grieve but also recognize the love and support that still exists in your life. Healing takes time but it does happen.

A professional setback or loss is painful but not permanent. Look at what remains and build from there. The most successful people have all experienced significant failures.

Loss is one of life's greatest teachers. Let grief soften your heart rather than harden it. Every loss creates space for something new to enter.
