[00:04.16]"So we don't have much knowledge in grief,
[00:07.18]So this mass of darkness makes us small.
[00:10.39]So in some ways, not having practices
[00:14.27]To move through grief keeps our life small.
[00:19.75]When we step across that threshold
[00:22.78]And enter the room of grief,
[00:24.29]It has a way of opening up the rest of our life.
[00:29.19]So part of what our grief is waiting for is the village to show up,
[00:33.82]And the village can be small, you know.
[00:35.68]If we have only two or three people gathered
[00:38.57]To sit down and say ' tonight
[00:39.94]Tonight, I want to tell you about my sorrow.
[00:43.97]I'm telling you something so deep about me.
[00:47.92]Why I'm angry is because something got to me so much
[00:52.06]At the heart of who I am.
[00:54.32]Something I love, something I cherish,
[00:56.13]Something I want to protect has been injured and violated.
[01:00.53]So I need to tell you about this, so you know me more deeply.'
[01:08.84]So there's this perpetual,
[01:10.14]Ongoing feeling of loss that we never really resolve."
