Observing Grief
Grief is a large and lonely experience.
It is standing at the edge of life, wondering why you feel eviscerated—marveling that so many people can just walk down the aisle of the grocery store without weeping or get out of bed without an excruciating inner argument or see tomorrow with any degree of hope.
Observing Grief gives those struggling with grief and loss a nurturing place of rest.
