“To weep is to make less the depth of grief.”

I am always saddened by the death of a good person. It is from this sadness that a feeling of gratitude emerges. I feel honored to have known them and blessed that their passing serves as a reminder to me that my time on this beautiful earth is limited and that I should seize the opportunity I have to forgive, share, explore, and love. I can think of no greater way to honor the deceased than to live this way.”

“How can it be that there is such a colossal gap between what we think we know about grief and mourning and what we actually find out when it comes to us?”
