this grief isn’t just about the person who died. It’s about you, too.⬅️ I think this resonates with me more.
In my opinion, when I see someone passed, whether stranger or someone I barely know, most time it has not much impact on me.
Usually I would be moved by the ones who were left behind grieving. Seeing them grief reminds me of my grief over the loved ones who passed. I think that is how it connects me with them. Rather then simply grieving over someone I barely know!🙏😊
Janet, I think you're right. This is a highly personal topic. Grief hits each of us in different ways. I like what you said about being moved by those who are left behind to grieve. That is a universal touchstone. We are all left here to grieve someone, and that's our connection. We've all known loss. We can grow our circle of empathy by reminders of our own journey through grief. I thank you for these insightful thoughts. You've moved the discussion forward. I'm grateful.
Yesyesyesyesyes! The death of someone on the periphery compounds the deaths much closer to our hearts that we haven't finished the grieving process for. At least for me. Great article exploring this topic, Richard!
Love this one.
I've had a lot of grief on my mind recently. It's being processed in many ways. Thanks, man.
Best wishes to you.
