Found this today and thought its worth sharing:
"There's something fundamentally unhealthy about the way our culture deals with grief. It seems to be viewed as a problem that needs to be fixed, a temporary psychosis that should be either prayed or medicated away rather than the catharsis it should be. It makes others uncomfortable, and is therefore quietly discouraged. As a result I think there are a lot of people that never actually finish grieving, that never fully accept their loss and come to peace with it."
how true!

i guess you're right. you can't say you're mind is hurt and take a sick leave! it's not accepted. you need to break your hand or something for "hurt" to be acknowledged.
funny world!
well, life's non-acceptance of grief probably makes it faster for anyone to come to peace with it and move on.
I'm with chethana on that!
sometimes, just ignoring it helps us get over the grief sooner.
but coming to peace with it, is a totally different question, altogether.
if only ignoring was that easy!
Your blog is interesting, i like it very much, thank you!
