But thy eternal Summer shall not fade (Shakespeare Sonnet 18)
21 January 2010
Grieving is bittersweet. At first, we are overwhelmed with the shock and
bitterness of losing a loved one. But after a while, after the shock starts to wear
off, we begin to reminisce about the sweetness that we shared with our loved
one. Still later, after the bitterness and sweetness begin to recede, we start
analyzing our relationship with our loved one, and come to new
understandings.
So the grieving process is lengthy, complicated, and ultimately productive.
Let’s
give ourselves ample time to go through the whole process and come out a
better person.
