Lesson Overview

8.42 – How to Hold Grief and Joy at the Same Time: Feeling happy after loss can trigger guilt, as if joy means forgetting. But both emotions can share space. Laughing at memories or enjoying a sunset doesn’t erase sadness—it honors life’s fullness. Grief and gratitude are twin reminders that love existed. Allowing joy in doesn’t betray the person you miss; it celebrates the connection that taught you how to feel. Balancing these emotions teaches resilience. The goal isn’t to choose between pain and peace but to weave them together until your heart finds rhythm again.
