My heart is broken again. V passed away tonight, and I don't know what to do anymore. (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Grieve. Feel it. That’s love. It hurts and it’s heavy, but that’s just the cost of them moving from a physical reality to one of memory and emotion. Don’t shut it out - mitigate it if you have to, bit by bit. But grief, to me, has never been about those you love leaving, that’s just them knocking at your heart’s door, asking to be let in.

I agree. Grief is the price we pay for love.
