Quote of The Month From Compassionate Friends

I read this quote and nodded yes, this is how I feel. I am thankful to Wayne Loder for his few words that summarize how I feel. It is eight years now since Paul died, and I am a survivor. Sadly my sister's journey has just begun, as it is only nine months since Jill passed away. My sister will survive too. We miss and love our children with all our hearts.

The passage of time alone does not cause our grief to end,

but its softening touch helps us to survive ~

I found this quote very touching and true.

I am writing a book on grief, and I am compiling quotes to include in my book. May I use this quote? Will of course add your name.

Thanks!
