The grieving process, it takes time the closer you are to somebody.
Oh, grief, you wicked, heartless aphrodisiac. Destroyer of endgames and worlds.
No matter how traumatic the loss is, you only have so much emotional stamina. Even grief can get used up.
I don’t understand grief. Don’t make no sense to me. You know, you find a way to step over it and move past it, go around it, but that emptiness, it don’t ever go away.[to Ben]
Grief never gets any smaller, so you have to make yourself bigger around it. The best way to do that is to open up. Let people in.
Grief is a tricky thing, you know? You just can’t prepare for how it’s gonna make you feel or how you’ll handle it. Sometimes you just got to grab onto whatever’s around you just to survive.[to Sophie]
