It's human to seek comfort in times of loss, and condolences warmth and compassion are never wrong to show.
We would all do this for a friend or acquaintance, it would be damaging to you to be cold and indifferent to a loss. That isn't who you are, you are a warm and loving person.
I would keep it at that level and remember the 100% rule. As Sandi says a WW may need more than that to show true change.
My condolences on your shared loss at Christmas. I will include you in today's votive.
Sandi if you are around I include your H and D in my prayers for you and your family too.
