Instead of suppressing the feelings , if it is allowed to come up and
be relinquished ,we can quickly jump from grief to acceptance.The
continuing grief over a loss is due to the resistance to accepting that
state and allowing the grief to expend itself .The persistence of a
feeling is due to the resistance to allowing it to be relinquished
( e.g., “Cry me a river “) .Once we accept the fact that we can handle
grief ,we are already up into pride .The feeling of “I can do it “ and
“I can handle it “ brings us to courage .With the courage to face out
inner feelings and let them go ,we thus move on to the levels of
acceptance and eventually peace .When we let go of a lot of grief we
have been holding over the years ,our friends and family will notice a
change in our facial expression .Our step will be lighter and we will
look younger .
