Grief Process

"So stand with me.  Be here.  Love me in your willingness to admit that you don't know the answers." Tim Lawrence

This is what Tim Lawrence says he needs from others to help him in his grief.  I think what I want from others is to not assume you know how I feel and to not think I should be "over this already".  Grief is a process.  Just as I write this I am feeling more grief than I have in some time.  So, for me, a perfect response is:  "I am sorry for your loss."   Just to acknowledge that I have had a huge loss.
