Teen Bereavement: Return
Like you, many young people in our parish/school have lost someone close through death. Sometimes it is hard to understand not only the events that have happened, but also our feelings and reactions to the loss.
There are times when we do not want to talk about the loss because of the pain that is brought up through recalling the person who died or the circumstances surrounding the death. It is possible, however, that sharing these thoughts and feelings may be just the right way to move toward a time of recovery and eventually to healing.
Whatever your feelings are at this time, I would like you to know that they are appropriate and real. Grief takes time and no two people handle it in the same fashion. There is no one right way. It is important, though, that we all have someone to talk to after a loss.
