GRIEF. My country is awash in a terrible storm. My beloved Gulliver, my children's dog, is not feeling well. I saw the movie, "Manchester by the Sea" and all I could do was cry-the whole film. The tears felt good, though. They felt authentic. They were a release during the duration of the film. But then I woke up today and felt sad all over again.
What do you do when the grief just stays there, aside from sit on it? And, I suppose, acknowledge it is a dark period, and the grief just won't quit. What do you do when you are generally an optimistic person, but have lost that sense of hopefulness.
Do you say tomorrow will be better? And what do you do if you really do not feel that?
