Grim Prayers. Wiktor Miesok, Felix Charin. 2026.
- Keep tight in public. Easier said than done but keep your grief private. Don't fall apart in public. If you collapse in front of people, you invite predators, and you also weaken the ones who depend on you. Be their pillar to lean on.
- Accept that the world moves on. The sun will rise tomorrow whether you are ready or not. Life continues, problems multiply, and your enemies move. So, you move too, even if your chest feels like it’s full of stones.
- Don’t romanticize the dead. They weren’t saints. None of us are. Honor who they really were, the good and the ugly, because truth is the only respect that lasts.
- Use the past as fuel, but don’t live in the past. Remembrance is useful, it can push you forward. But if you crawl inside it and live there, then instead of honoring the dead you’re hiding from life. Make memories into a tool to inspire you, not into a home to hide in.
- Carry on. Finish the mission you had together. That is loyalty: family, work, a promise, even a simple way of living. When you complete what the two of you began, grief turns into duty, and you find peace in your soul.
- Keep moving. If you fell, rise and continue walking. One step at a time. Move forward, every fucking day.
