~The Compassionate Friends





Grief is yelling at the beautiful sunrise because it means time is abandoning your loved one.

Grief is damage control.

Grief is a tribute to the depth of your love.

~Grieving Mother, Leslie Martin Nelson via ~The Bible Page in Unity John 17




Grief is a hope turned backwards in time.

~The Compassionate Friends

When a child dies, we find that our minds are cloudy, they don't seem to work very well, and approaches we conceive to help us survive our loss often don't pan out as we anticipated. These words by Carol Staudacher seem to focus on what we truly must do make our way through the landmine called "grief."




  • Grief is sitting in bed crying in the middle of the night saying God I miss you. Please, if you are there, give me a sign and hearing a bird sing a happy tune in the darkness and knowing that song was your answer.

~The Compassionate Friends



Grief is an inventory of what has been lost.



~~~~~




~Grieving Mother, Faye Marie Miller




Grief is panning through memories over and over searching for jewels.



~~~~~






~Grieving Mother, Faye Marie Miller




Grief is lazy and lethargic.





~~~~~





~Grieving Mother, Faye Marie Miller




Grief is exhaustion that cannot sleep, hunger that cannot eat, and tears that will not dry.
