What is the reality of grief?

Like all other transients who arrive in the world of spirits, the soul is greeted lovingly and offered every possible assistance and solace if the reaction to its leaving earth life evinces complicated grief. 

The intense sorrow, pain and rumination over the loss of the loved one may preoccupy the soul, keeping it closely bound to its family’s grief.

When you agonise over the death or loss of a loved one, you are bound to spirit, for bonds in grief are as strong, as the bonds of love, and both have powerful effects on the soul.

Accepting the reality of your loss and adjusting to a new reality in which the deceased is no longer present will give the departed soul spiritual strength in the shared love instead of the crippling and paralyzing effects of shared grief.
