stages of grief.

"when we are dying, or have suffered a loss, we all move through five distinct stages of grief.
we go into denial, because the loss is so unthinkable. we cant imagine its true.
we become angry with everyone. angry with God, angry with survivors, angry with ourselves.
then we bargain. we beg, we plead. we offer everything we have. we offer up our souls, in exchange just for one more day.
when the bargaining has failed and the anger is too hard to maintain, we fall into depression. despair.
until finally we have to accept that we have done everything we can.
we let go.
we let go and move into acceptance."
