“What is grief, if not love persevering” – Vision
This is a quote from the new series, Wanda Vision. What a quote to start this month off with. We feel the grief of losing a year, our friends, our community…. but what a glorious thing it is that we can love something enough to mourn over it when it is gone. This quote challenges me to view these hard things differently. I often find myself only looking at the negative side of things. I wonder why everything happens… I focus only on the grief. But when I realize that it is wonderful that I have something to grieve over, it makes it somewhat worthwhile and makes me thankful for everything I have. I will admit, I struggle with a lot of things still. But, I am grateful that I can feel these emotions so deeply because I felt the love so deeply.
That is so true. I’m not sure I’ve ever thought of it that way. How wonderful it is to love enough to be able to mourn. Can you imagine a life where you never loved?
