My father died 3 years ago unexpectedly. There is no such thing as closure just finding the strength to go on

You are absolutely spot on!  What you have learned on your journey thus far is the same as we have all learned, there is a beginning to grief, but not an ending...it does, however, evolve with time.  Thank God.  I would hate to be stuck in the beginning pain indefinitely.  (((hugs)))

A deep wound is painful and bleeds for a time. Gradually the cells come together and make a scab. When it falls off, the deep wound is gone but a scar remains. It stays with you all of your life, but the pain is no longer unbearable. 

Not a great wisdom giver but that's my metaphor for grief. It is the part of life we all dread, but have to go through. Unfortunately.
