What Is Grief? Wow. That's a deep question that has different answers for different people. For some, grief is a dark hole of depression and sadness that consumes them and weighs them down. For others, they say, "it's no big deal, I'm good", as they try to deny that they're hurting, probably because they've been (wrongly) told not to grieve, because "we know where they are", or "you'll see them again someday", by well-meaning family, friends, and sometimes ministers.
We all handle grief in different ways. In this episode, we define exactly what grief is...and what it's not.
