Everyone grieves in different ways. For some, it could take longer or shorter. I do know it never disappears. An ember still smolders inside me. Most days, I don’t notice it, but, out of the blue, it’ll flare to life.

About This Quote

The quote above was written by A. A. Milne and means that we all grieve in different ways and there is no one way we all go through this heartbreaking time. Because we all experience the loss of a loved one and because we all grieve differently, there is no set of rules for how to deal with losing a friend or family member.

We all experience our grief in different ways, and sometimes it takes longer than others, but it never disappears completely. It is something that just needs to be dealt with over time.
