A lot of times, when something hurts, naming it can tame it. Grief isn’t always about loss of something tangible. It could be about loss of an idea or possibility. When things look different than we expected it’s normal to grieve what could have been. And when people hurt us, sometimes we grieve the relationship we thought we had, or the potential for a better one. The way we grieve or when might surprise us, and let’s always remember that grief and happiness can always coexist.
