Grief is hard to define and describe because it is directly shaped by our relationship to what or who we are grieving. And our relationships are complex and rich and complicated and confusing. No one can be inside of our bodies and hearts to know exactly what that relationship feels like, which can contribute to the deep sense of loneliness that grief often brings.
And while grief can be as variable as us humans and our relationships are, we tend to be more similar than different in respect to our grieving process. Depicted here are some of the phrases I hear daily that continue to highlight how human this grieving thing is.

Welcome to my #100dayproject. I am providing a daily offering on #grief, in honor of each person who has trusted me with their story and wisdom during their #griefjourney. I hope that others may benefit from simple and straightforward talk about a topic that can be difficult. Thanks for following and/or sharing.
