Losses create the strange set of feelings that we call mourning or grief. September seems to bring changes that create grief in a myriad of situations. The mother whose first child enters kindergarten is filled with many feelings. It marks another cycle of life when a small child is launched into a broader world. She grieves that her little child no longer depends on her for everything - someone else will take her place in the child's maturation process. The same happens to parents who find it painful to launch a young adult from the family circle into the broader world of college or work or an LDS mission. When the child moves out of the home parents and other siblings grieve unfilled in their family circle. The child is launching into a life of independence and responsibility. Parents worry that the foundaover the space tion they have given their child is enough. The human heart is tugged mightily when the last child leaves the 'nest' and the parents must sometimes make huge adjustments in dealing with the 'empty nest syndrome.' And they grieve over what used to be and they wish they could bring it all back. Life doesn't work that way. These losses, and many other kinds of losses, determine how well people will handle more difficult losses in life. Are we able to recognize the cycles of life and recognize that they are normal? Are we willing to let go with hope, or do we cling to the past in regrets andor sadness? Do we see life's glass half empty or half full? Do we use a faith that gives us strength and comfort? The answers to these questions help us develop coping mechanisms when things don't happen as we expected them to. Death of a loved one, whether it be a small child, an adult child, a parent, a spouse, elderly grandparents can be a very difficult experience for everyone concerned. There is a ripple effect that takes place in the family and extended family depending on how the primary person(s) handle their grieving. Grief is real work; it is hard working some cases. The goal of grief work is who will listen, someone who is capable of processing your pain to let go of the pain. Many people need support in the grieving process-someon- e and assist you deal with your loss in such a way that you are able to go on with life in healthy ways. Loss and grief can make us stronger in this , journey of life. You will never be the same; you are not expected to be. Life wasn t planned that way. Remember the past with sweet, loving thoughts, but learn to let go of the pain and suffering in dealing with your loss. Be good to your self as you experience emo tionally jarring life experiences. r Walker Sanderson Father The DaHy Herald obituary rates are as follows: $18 31 per inch, $15 per picture.
