It grief. May I ask you a question? Well, you might think it's strange. Is grief for the dead or is it for the living? True, we grieve the loss of life, but do we not also grieve other things? A lost childhood, failed relationships, past opportunities, the breaking of one's own heart. If we have so many things to grieve over, why are we ever so quick to dismiss it? Neither do we entertain it or allow others to do so

You. Hi there. I was listening to your swell kind of very intently. Plus the music in the background was very soothing enough to really listen it very patiently as well. The idea of grief that you've expressed is not confine itself to death alone. It can confine to some kind of loss, whether big or small. And beautifully said, beautifully oriented as well. I think as you said, this is a process and it is okay to grief, right?

And they understand that because they are dealing the loss in their own ways. One has lost her husband, one has lost her father so they did not really talk. They allowed themselves to just be and after six months when they were sort of at a better mental state they took a vacation and then they just held each other each other's hands and cried and let it all out

I think I also heard you say that during grief and it's a process of healing, but also that there's some restructuring of the foundation going on. And I absolutely love that you said that and you are absolutely right, because something during the healing process, right, some things die, some things we clear out, some things end so that we can meet new beginnings. So I think these are really wise words for someone who I think has gone through grief multiple times in their life
And even if you do, to be able to come out of it and say, it's okay, it's okay. It's part of the healing journey and also in being kind yourself. So thanks for sharing. That really opened my mind to different, different things. And I actually learned a lot listening to the responses. I think another person had responded. And I just put out a poem about grief

I think we share the same kind of vibe. So I'm really glad that I ended up meeting you, particularly here on Swell. So, yes, my friend, I'm doing good. I hope you're doing good, too. And lots of love and hug and warmth to you, too. Take care
Hi, Candy. I do agree with every line that you have said. So most of the time what happens is people restrict us from expressing our emotions. People say strong people will never cry. So what happens is those emotions get collected and that come out to be in the worst form sometimes
