On the Way to Where You’re Going was created in 2019 to assist those walking through deep loss. We are dedicated to providing new tools for your “new normal.” Our tools are especially helpful for those who have lost children. However, they can be used by all.
Our Name
On the way to where we’re going, things happen. Sometimes, bad things happen. Often, in the midst of the pain, it’s hard to remember that we were ever going some place; moving forward with a destination in mind. We can become disheartened and stop with no wherewithal to continue. Sometimes, we begin to believe that dark, lonely place is all there is. On The Way to Where You’re Going was named as a reminder that you’re going someplace. Your circumstances may not be temporary, but where you are is! You can move on from the place of hopelessness. You can begin moving forward, limp and all, bringing along the love of the one you miss so dearly. Even with the loss of a child, it’s possible. Painful, but possible. I wish there wasn’t pain on this journey. The key is to not allow our pain to leave us stuck in a pit. Rather, we can use our pain to propel us into new things, in honor of our precious loved one. I hope you feel empowered here at On the Way to Where You’re Going.
