Tender curiosities:

  • Why do we measure our love with how long it takes for us to heal?
  • Is there something more we can do with grief than just learning to cope with the pain?
  • What am I supposed to say instead?

It is always said with love and good intentions, but I believe it is a lie. The platitude that “time heals all” is subtly teaching us that waiting is what brings healing. And what do we do in the meantime? Survive. The message is that we are victims. And there is nothing that robs us of living more than victimhood. There is no personal responsibility in that, no empowerment in that. Let’s clear the air once and for all of this dangerous adage that keeps being passed down to new generations of broken hearts.
