You get to control that, with no expectations from the rest of us who sit shiva with you now. <BR/><BR/>Grief is cyclic because, I think, we can only digest so much of any particular emotion at any given time. It takes time and energy. On some level it can be interesting to watch oneself go through the process.

I'm hoping you will allow yourself to do it. <BR/><BR/>I've heard that to really take the time to grieve fully right after a loss, means you will be able to recover better later on. <BR/><BR/>Whether this is true or false, you have my warmest thoughts, and hugs. <BR/><BR/>love, jessiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6060627539063061936.post-48126771978657264382008-09-24T03:55:00.000-04:002008-09-24T03:55:00.000-04:00Dearest G, Dano, Larry, Ana, and Immi,Thank you.

Empathy is one of the greatest features a friend can ever have, and so there's nothing to be worried about as long as people know what you're going through. And even though I know it's been hard you've been excellent at keeping us updated. Thank you, take Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14587594237129808983noreply@blogger.com
