Here’s some sentences I read last night.
Pain wants to be heard. It deserves to be heard. Denying or minimizing the reality of pain makes it worse. Telling the truth about the immensity of your pain – which is another way of paying attention – makes things different if not better.
It’s important to find those places where your grief gets to be as bad as it is, where it gets to suck as much as it does.
Remaining calm enough to feel everything, to remain calm while feeling everything, knowing that it can’t be changed.
