That Discomfort You’re Feeling Is Grief
That Discomfort You’re Feeling Is Grief
Anticipatory grief is that feeling we get about what the future holds when we’re uncertain. ​ If you feel the worst image taking shape, make yourself think of the best image. We all get a little sick and the world continues. Not everyone I love dies. Maybe no one does because we’re all taking the right steps. Neither scenario should be ignored but neither should dominate either. ​ We can — we should — stop at the first feeling. I feel sad. Let me go for five minutes to feel sad. Your work is to feel your sadness and fear and anger whether or not someone else is feeling something. ​ Emotions need motion.
