Day 3 - Myths About Grief

Best if we leave them alone... 

A painting by Mikayla
Portraying a girl drowning in her grief, while those around her
give her the space that they think she may need.

The best way to help people in grief, I have realised,
is not to try to pull them out, not to try and make them better,
 but just to climb down, take their hands, and sit with them awhile.
Let them cry, and cry some more.
