Afterlife Quote by D. L. Kline
““What I’m trying to get across is, we all suffer feelings of loss and despair when grieving for a friend or relative that has transitioned, but after learning and knowing that no one that goes home is “lost”, but is right where they should be, it means that we often create our own victimhood by retreating into an all-encompassing state of grief.””
