Grief Quote by Jeremy Limn
“People do not like the tragic side of life. They deny pain and suffering as a facet of life. Even when someone writes about the sorrow they complain. But we've to remember sorrow is life, and life is sorrow. We're made to suffer, if you tell yourself you will not suffer you living in a delusion. Are we accustomed to the pain of life? No we're not, because pain or the loss of a loved one is not expected. We expect what we expect to happen, we do not expect what doesn't happen. I say, that under everything, buried deep down the well of life, is pain love joy, all these come and go like the wind.”
