California Grief Center (CGC) @caligrief.bsky.social · 03/01/2026The Grief Wave 🌀 recently bereaved in several directions (1/8) As we move into year two of The Grief Wave, I keep returning to a line by Muriel Rukeyser: “The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.” Grief rearranges the story before we’re ready. 200
Aging child @4teamdemocracy.bsky.social · 03/01/2026I told my urologist during my cancer exam that my wife had died last month of stage 4 cancer. He put his hand on my shoulder and attempted to console me, saying, “At the end of the day, we are all just a collection of electrons.” 000
