TONIGHT's Topic: "Have We "Institutionalized" Grief!"
Let's face it, nobody is comfortable with grief, either their own, or anybody else's. Grief makes us uncomfortable. Grief is "strange", and because no two people's grief-journey is the same, we don't know how to deal with it. As I have read other articles about grief, and through my own experiences, I have come to the unmistakable-conclusion that we may have "institutionalized" grief by trying to "compartmentalize" and suppress it. Our society would say;
Grieve in private, but act like you are "normal" otherwise.
What is grief?
Grief is an "intense emotional suffering caused by loss, misfortune, injury or evil of any kind". WOW! That brush is pretty broad, but for those who have suffered from these kinds of experiences, it should come as no surprise that grief comes calling too. Grief is a journey, not a destination...
