Yes, grief. Too often we're told to put on a happy face, buck-up, move on.

When we bury pain, it comes out sideways, affects us in other ways.

This from a favorite writer, Anne Lamott: "We cried a lot, but agreed to let our hearts stay broken for awhile, because that is how light, grace and healing can get in, through the armor."

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.
