Gibran Loss leaves us sorrowful. When we experience loss we are in fact weeping for who or what we have just lost. For even where pain existed in relation to knowing someone, doing something, or having something, there became a familiar delight that we associated with our connectedness to object or person. It is this loss, the loss of what we had, what we knew, what was familiar and comforting and what had afforded us with a feeling of security that we mourn for. Inherent with any loss is the fact that you will never be the same again.
Any major loss leaves a legacy.
The eptiome of the legacy is that we never forget. It is the reality that we remember what and or who we've lost that makes loss an excercise in a perpetual saying of good-bye. Loss, and the grief of loss, require of us that we re-visit our loss time and time again. Losses naturally compound one another. When we are grieving a loss in our lives it will also take us back to other previous losses.
