Grief and Loss

"There is a sort of invisible blanket between the world and me. I find it hard to take in what anyone says….Yet I want the others to be about me. I dread the moments when the house is empty. If only they would talk to one another and not to me."
- C.S. Lewis, "A Grief Observed"

He might have encountered a different level of grief than mine but it still boils down to one thing : Sadness, loneliness and fear.

I found out that the process of grief are : shock, denial, bargaining, anger, acceptance. I want to skip to acceptance and not go through the other two after denial. I just want to have a peaceful transition of accepting things.


He is a strong person and so am i.
