“Kind words are a revelation and a revolution that fly in the face of society's norms. Your griever walks away from your shared interaction feeling lighter, knowing that someone-you, dear comforter-sees them, cares about them, validates them, and is gently holding hope for them in the midst of their grief. Your connection with them is strengthened, and you close your eyes, remembering that while your existence on planet earth may be small, your words have just contributed to its healing. You cannot possibly know all the ripple effects of this one interaction, but you're looking forward to-instead of dreading-having another one like it. Because you've found a way to be a source of ongoing comfort in a world overcome by loss.

I don't know about you, but to me, that is a miracle."

"There are times in grief when the phone doesn't ring, when a kind text doesn't come, or when no one shows up with comforting words. Whether it's because your support system has never existed, has disappeared, or simply doesn't knowhow to respond to the unique circumstances surrounding your loss, there are moments where you may feel alone in your grief. In these moments, you deserve language to wrap around yourself like a warm blanket, even if it's your own voice doing the wrapping."

"A dear friend, who has now passed, told me that you are frozen for the first year after tragedy strikes. This first year is filled with anniversaries and other events that you look back on in disbelief at how life has changed. You go to bed on earth and wake up on Mars, a complete shift in your reality. The idea of being completely frozen is very real."
