Day #2 - If We Had Never Loved - We Would Not Need to Grieve Early in my days of grieving the untimely death of my husband, someone said to me, “Isn’t it great that you are grieving?” Of course, I wanted to walk away after telling him what I thought of his insensitive comment; but before I could he continued to explain. He said, Grief is not the result of having experienced loss, it is the result of having experienced love! As I pondered his interpretation of grief, I felt he summarized it very well. I would not have exchanged my time with my husband even though I thought the pain in my heart would never stop. It really meant that I had loved and was loved in return. No matter what your relationship was with your loved one, the loss can be so overwhelming that we lose sight of the love and only feel the pain. In the end arent we fortunate to have loved someone so dearly that with their passing there is an emotional and physical void? As you journey through your loss, continue to remind yourself that the pain you experience is in direct proportion to loving someone and being loved back. Even if the life was taken too soon, you still had the opportunity to embrace love.
