The death of a loved one can be frightening, confusing, and mysterious. Grief is an inevitable emotion that we will all face. It takes us on a journey that can plunge us into the deepest, darkest part of our life. It can be overwhelming, and the void left behind can be filled with anger, guilt, self-pity, and hopelessness. But it can also be transformative. The loss of a loved one is permanent, but if we allow it, it can be an opportunity to find new meaning in our own life. It is possible for us to be grateful for what once was instead of longing for what should have been.
