A Grief Observed

It seems as a society we as people need to go through tragic trials in our lives to be shaken or moved out of our current states. And death is definitely one to either make or break a person. I personally have not experienced a close family member to pass away, well I mean I have but I was so young and it didn’t affect me the way I though death should affect someone..  well now after writing this statement, how should one take death? Yet why is there a common emotion to have but at the same time we all have very different emotions and experience death  all in our own way. Despite that fact that its the same situation; we lose a love one. Its not that I was too young and didn’t remember my Uncle because I remember him in my life very well. but when my mom’s brother passed away suddenly at a very early age. I can even remember the pain my mother went through, it seemed like a year she grieved . To experience a pain like that, you can’t help but go with the flow of your life being rearranged in a way that can bloom open new seasons for you or keep you in the dark. For class we read the book A Grief Observed by C.S.Lewis; His journal, reflection, his grievances and feeling toward God about his wife’s death. Its easy to put the hurt that we are feeling on someone and most of the time its God, but I believe everything happens for a reason and God maps out our lives and things that we don’t understand or cant see why they are happening God knows. God used my Uncle’s death to bring people to him when he took his last breath. I would go into detail about what happened but even though I was young and then it didn’t affect me but now it still does. But I know through anything God can make it good.
