Life doesn't end this year. There are still years waiting for us.

Life doesn't end this year.

There are still years waiting for us. This year could be bad.

Be patient. It might be good next year.

Everyone has their own "rhythm of life."

Grieving the loss of someone who’s still alive

Losing someone important to you due to their own choices can be one of the most difficult experiences any human could endure. The sheer part of letting go is the hardest. Why would you let go of someone that’s still there? Doesn’t that show YOU’VE given up? Or maybe you agree to the choice as well?

A slide on a blue background with a brain icon, explaining that 'Not Sharing Isn't Selfish — It's Developmentally Normal' for toddlers before age 3-4 due to egocentrism and developing empathy.
