HAWAI‘I ISLAND MIDWEEK 7
Show You Care
It’s never easy to lose a loved one. When we know someone is grieving, we customarily say, “I’m sorry for your loss” and move on. We hesitate to say more for fear of reopening the wound and causing additional pain, when in fact, the unseen wound is still gaping (so there’s nothing to “reopen”).
There seems to be a belief that resurrecting mem- ories is painful, yet the opposite is actually true. Ac- tive remembrance of a loved one who has passed is healing.
A powerful way to show someone that you care is to ask to hear a memory, or offer one of your own. Reminiscing seeds an opportunity to not only honor the memory of the person, but reconnect to a bit of joy in that moment.
