To suffering must be added mourning, understanding, patience, love, openness, and a willingness to remain vulnerable. By Anne Morrow Lindbergh Daily quotes, Grief, Mourning, Sad, Vulnerability We are healed of a suffering only by experiencing it in full. By Marcel Proust Grief, Mourning, Sad One cannot be deeply responsive to the world without being saddened very often. By Erich Fromm Insanity, Sad For certain is death for the born / And certain is birth for the dead; / Therefore over the inevitable / Thou shalt not grieve. By Bhagavad Gita, 2:27 Death, Grief, Mourning, Sad All I know from my own experience is that the more loss we feel the more grateful we should be for whatever it was we had to lose. It means that we had something worth grieving for. The ones I’m sorry for are the ones that go through life not knowing what grief is.
