Sayuri on Grief

It is helpful to discover and read my blogs from a long time ago. It takes me back to me...the me I was before life as a mother began..

This is what I make of grief...I hope this grief I am in right now will pass soon..that one day the window will stay closed.

Grief is a most peculiar thing; we're so helpless in the face of it. It's like a window that will simply open of its own accord. The room grows cold, and we can do nothing but shiver. But it opens a little less each time, and a little less; and one day we wonder what has become of it.
