Excellent article, Mario. You are so right… people don’t often recognize what can trigger grief, thinking it is only related to death. I’m a grief recovery specialist, and I learned in my studies there are over 40 kinds of life incidents that can trigger grief, and this past year is one of them. I’m also glad you included your thoughts about the “time heals all wounds” phrase, because time does not have that kind of power. Only the person grieving can guide their thoughts and feelings to adjust to their new life after experiencing deep loss. Thank you for your brilliant, insightful article, and I’ll be sharing this!
