Honoring Sorrow

Our culture can treat sorrow as something “bad”, something you should avoid, something you should get over.

You don't need to do that.

Repressing your sorrow doesn’t make it better, it drives it underground.

Sorrow is part of making a transition. Of honoring a memory.

Embrace your sorrow.

Fully express it, such as through writing and talking to friends who understand.

Honor your sorrow.
