Tigers are solitary animals, they love huge personal space. Lions are clingy and social animals.

@Bergey66 Blessings to you and your family at this tender time.

After a long hard 3 year battle, Dad lost his fight with Cancer. The best father, friend, grand father, football player and out right great person in this world. I will truly miss him. Love you dad.

@TucciStanley_ Amen to that, Buddy.

@jennyalaking @TucciStanley_ 😂😂

@TucciStanley_ My parents in Newfoundland named a squirrel after you and I thought you should know. ‘Stanley Tucci is sitting outside the patio door eating peanuts!’

When we experience grief, we want others to witness it, not because we want them to take our pain away or ‘fix’ the problem, but instead because we just need someone there with us. Sometime having the grief witnessed is best help we can receive.

The more love and connection you felt with them, the deeper it hurts when you lose them. When we embrace the pain and face it head on, it honors the deep connection you have with them and honors the life they lived, and the impact they will continue to have on you.

@TheRevAl We're so sorry for your loss, Rev. Sharpton. Prayers for peace and comfort for you and your family at this tender time. ❤️💔❤️

I’m deeply saddened to announce the passing of my father, Al Sharpton, Sr. Our relationship was complicated, but he was still my father. Over the past 18 years, I was able to work through my pain and feelings of abandonment, and we built a relationship that meant a lot to me. Born and raised in Jim Crow Florida, he later came to NYC and became a successful entrepreneur. Though his weaknesses may have cost him, he instilled in my sister and me (and later our other siblings) a mentality of independence and self-pride. I've learned from my own mistakes and from his. May my Daddy rest in peace.

@MidlifeCoach121 Yes, great videos, and I love DK. I'll be attending the PESI workshop with him later this month! ❤️

@LisaKConsulting Dr. Leanne Campbell was excellent, wasn't she? Such moving demo tapes. I see you're also a follower of David Kessler's work. I'm a big DK fan too!

Excited to be a lifelong learner and joining #PESI today for "Transforming #Trauma with Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT)."

@othingstodo_com Yogi, (my cutesy name for yogurt). Actually it was Skyr...

When comforting someone in grief, avoid starting sentences with "at least." Instead of trying to "fix" them, recognize that they are not broken. What they need most is your presence and willingness to listen as they express themselves.

@ANNELAMOTT No drugs... still confused. 🙄

I feel that if I hadn’t taken all those drugs in my twenties and early thirties, I’d be able to make sense of the RFK Jr./dead bear cub story.

@jlschuster827 Beautiful; thank you for starting my day with this sweet story. ❤️

When I was 15 my mom was an art student. I was her first subject. She cleaned up the piece for my son.

@IamDavidKessler Missing AND celebrating our daughter, Diane, (left), who would have been 50 today. Thank you for educating the world about grief, and that we can eventually live with more joy than sadness. ❤️💔❤️

Grief alters our lives in ways we may not have anticipated. These questions can bring up feelings of sadness, anger, frustration or fear. Give yourself grace in these challenging moments. Be compassionate with yourself as you navigate your grief at your own pace.
