Saving Grace Quote
Herself - Author: Children experience a lot of little deaths: the loss of a pet, a divorce, a teacher leaves that they love, a friend moves away, a friend no longer wants to be their friend - these are deaths, these are forms of death, they're loss. They are some threshold we come to where we can't get what we want, and the other side of the threshold is mysterious and unknown to us. And I think if we can teach our children to approach change and loss with consciousness, with awake-fullness, not a "oh it'll get better", "oh don't be so sad", or "you're make a mountain out of a mole hill", no, to really respect children's feelings about loss.
