If anything, the loss of someone or something precious to you will give you lessons on impermanence and accepting change.

In the lead-up to the hospitalisation and the death of my father, I was introduced to wisdom from several people. One of them, Pema Chödrön, stands out – although all of them really helped in my spiritual journey in grief.
I decided to write a standalone piece on the wisdom that helped me, and you can read it below:
9 Pema Chödrön Quotes that helped me in my grief.
The full piece is at Elephant Journal, read it here.
Here are a few quotes that I like:
- “Fear is a natural reaction to moving closer to the truth.”
- “The most difficult times for many of us are the ones we give ourselves.”
- “When we protect ourselves so we won’t feel pain, that protection becomes like armor, like armor that imprisons the softness of the heart.”
- “Nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know.”
