More From Meghan O'Rourke

Grief is real because loss is real. each grief has its own imprint, as distinctive and as unique as the person we lost. the pain of loss is so intense, so heartbreaking, because in loving we deeply connect with another human being, and grief is the reflection of the connection that has been lost. we think we want to avoid the grief, but really it is the pain of the loss we want to avoid. grief is the healing process that ultimately brings us comfort in our pain. copyright: elisabeth kubler-ross family limited partnership.
Pain Real Grief
I am sorry to have to introduce the subject of christmas. it is an indecent subject; a cruel, gluttonous subject; a drunken, disorderly subject; a wasteful, disastrous subject; a wicked, cadging, lying, filthy, blasphemous and demoralizing subject. christmas is forced on a reluctant and disgusted nation by the shopkeepers and the press: on its own merits it would wither and shrivel in the fiery breath of universal hatred; and anyone who looked back to it would be turned into a pillar of greasy sausages.

Grief causes you to leave yourself. you step outside your narrow little pelt. and you can’t feel grief unless you’ve had love before it - grief is the final outcome of love, because it’s love lost. […] it’s the cycle of love completed: to love, to lose, to feel grief, to leave, and then to love again. grief is the awareness that you will have to be alone, and there is nothing beyond that because being alone is the ultimate final destiny of each individual living creature. that’s what death is, the great loneliness.

I don't think grief of grief in a medical way at all. i think that i and many of my colleagues, are very concerned when grief becomes pathological, that there is no question that grief can trigger depression in vulnerable people and there is no question that depression can make grief worse.

Clothing sizes are weird, they go: small, medium, large and then extra large, extra extra large, extra extra extra large. something happened at large, they just gave up. they were like, 'i'm not doing any more adjectives; you just keep putting extras on there.' we could do better than that: small, medium, large, whoa, easy, slow down, stop it, interesting, american.

It was missing a piece. and it was not happy. so it set off in search of its missing piece. and as it rolled it sang this song - "oh i'm lookin' for my missin' piece i'm lookin' for my missin' piece hi-dee-ho, here i go, lookin' for my missin' piece.

Right around my first year of college - i remember "song of solomon," by toni morrison, just moved me tremendously. the power of language and how it can peel back truths, bring things to the surface. so i learned a lot from fiction.

We've got a great bench of songs, and the people have a really good time at our stereophonics's shows. people are the same all over the world. if we can play football stadiums and arenas in one country, there's no reason we can't play them in another country. people are people.

When you write a song, the goal is not to convey the details of your life. you should write a memoir or something if that's what you're going to do.
