No one ever explains how grief can hit you at any moment. You hear people say that it comes in waves, pulling itself from the depths of your mind when you least expect it to. I always assumed that grief was a one-time feeling, something that comes in the form of shock in one explosive episode before eventually becoming numb. Anyone who says they no longer feel the pain of grief is a liar. They just became incredibly good at making life seem like they are no longer clouded by the reality death has brought them.
