As long as we’re stuck in shame, grief’s gift—a process of slow tenderizing, of deepening vulnerability that, over time, expands our ability to feel even more fully and therefore love even more deeply—remains agonizingly just out of reach, behind closed doors whose seeming impenetrability makes them loom monstrously large.
Transition is as much about letting go as it is about moving ahead, but too often we eschew the mournful emotions of loss and sorrow as at odds with the deliberate practice of cultivating positivity and presence. But the mournful emotions don’t take us out of the moment; by allowing ourselves to inhabit the melancholic ache inherent in moving on, we can feel even more fully the roundness of the particular moment we’re in, it’s aliveness: how it inhales and exhales into a body larger than itself, how it pulses in relation to history and hope.
