GRIEF BRIEF 91
THE ULTIMATE ADVERSITY

Love is tempered and grows stronger through adversity and sacrifice.
The more we experience together the stronger our relationships become.
Death eradicates our ability to be together and to continue experiencing life together.
It does not, however, eradicate our ability to continue loving our decedent.
It does not make it impossible for our love to continue on and deepen as we continue through life without our companion or our loved one.
Love is not a physical experience - it is a deeply emotional and spiritual experience.
Were it not so, how would one explain the love a parent has for an unborn child?
How would one explain the abiding love parents carry to their graves for their miscarried children?
Death is the ultimate adversary in our relationships.
It does not, however, sever us from the love we hold dear in our hearts.
(Mourning Light I, Tracy Renee Lee, 2016)
