Grieving when you’ve lost a loved one is totally natural.
It can be a difficult and challenging process, and it affects us all in different ways.
How deeply you grieve depends on a lot of factors, including your relationship with the person who’s passed, and the circ*mstances around their passing.
There’s no ‘normal’ amount of time it takes for grief to pass, so it’s important to acknowledge how you’re feeling and to remember that self-care is an integral part of the healing process.
Some people seek out loved ones for support while grieving, while others may choose to be alone, and some will seek professional support.
Whatever stage of this emotional process you’re in, sometimes a quote or poem can bring comfort during such a challenging time.
In this article we’ve pulled together ten of our favourite quotes about overcoming grief that we hope might bring you some comfort:
“The song is ended but the melody lingers on.”
“When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.”
“Grief can be a burden, but also an anchor. You get used to the weight, how it holds you in place.”
“Life is full of grief, to exactly the degree we allow ourselves to love other people.”
“Only time and tears take away grief; that is what they are for.”
“So it’s true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love.”
“I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.”
“The weird, weird thing about devastating loss is that life actually goes on. When you're faced with a tragedy, a loss so huge that you have no idea how you can live through it, somehow, the world keeps turning, the seconds keep ticking.”
“We bereaved are not alone. We belong to the largest company in all the world – the company of those who have known suffering.”
“Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect.”
We understand that this can be a very overwhelming time. With time grief can become more manageable, but if you find that your grief is making it difficult for you to function normally, seek professional support.
"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal." "No one ever told me that grief felt so much like fear." "Grief is not a disorder, a disease or a sign of weakness. It is an emotional, physical and spiritual necessity, the price you pay for love.
1. “Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.” —Emily Dickinson. This is a powerful message to send to someone who is grieving, reassuring him or her that the love they have for the deceased will last forever.
I loved you then, I love you now, I will love you forever, to infinity and beyond.Gone but not forgotten, gone but ever here.No longer living in this world, but always and ever near.
“If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”― Martin Luther King, Jr.
I think of you with every waking moment of my life and dream of you with every dream that I have; I miss you.” Your absence has gone through me like thread through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color.”
Quote 1: “The reality is, you will grieve forever. You will never 'get over' the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole, but you will never be the same again.
--We will always cherish the beautiful memories of (name of deceased). --My heart is with you in your time of sorrow. --(Name of deceased) will be greatly missed but his/her warmth, kindness, and gentle spirit will be remembered forever. --With our love and deepest sympathy as we remember (name of deceased).
The only way to take sorrow out of death is to take love out of life. There is no greater sorrow than to recall happiness in times of misery. Sorrow is knowledge, those that know the most must mourn the deepest, the tree of knowledge is not the tree of life.
“May you be comforted by the outpouring of love surrounding you.” “We hope you know we are by your side during this time of sorrow.” “Sending you strength today and peace in all the days ahead.” “Wishing you peace and comfort in these difficult days.”
