Grief Workshop 2015
By Tom Miller
The holidays are very difficult for those who are grieving. Thanksgiving and Christmas are about family and friends and being together. Many will face these holidays with voids in their lives due to losses they have experienced. Death is not the only reason people grieve, however. Grief is a result of any significant loss. The list of reasons why we grieve would include divorce, the loss of heath or a job, a child leaving home, the fracture of a relationship, a move from a familiar and beloved place—and the list goes on. Furthermore, we can grieve before the loss in anticipation of it. Many think about what might happen and grieve about that. When these things are considered, it is easy to see why grief is so common and why most of us are grieving about one thing or another.
