Finding Meaning Through Loss
Life has a remarkable way of reminding us that we are not in control.
Not long ago, I sat down to write, with a clear plan for the evening. Then a message arrived: a dear friend’s father had passed away unexpectedly. Within the hour, I found myself at the hospital, standing alongside people I care about. In moments like these, there are rarely words that can ease the pain. Yet simply being present—sharing silence, grief, and humanity—often matters more than anything we could say.
