And what now? What do you do with the grief for individual losses stirred up by the collective grief exhibited at #queensfuneral? I suggest: - Take the time to grieve your losses. - Create your own rituals. - Put *your* loved ones in the spotlight. #grief #griefsupport

"It's not ideal, but it's not a Big Deal." A helpful thought for my anxiety and healing. I acknowledge a disappointment -- "not ideal" -- but don't make it mean too much. A potential "gift" of losing a loved one is perspective on what is a Big Deal! #grief #Ship30 #tweet100
