Insights 討論內容:

* Words don’t express grief well enough

* At who or what is anger directed?

* With a disease, important not to “own” the disease

* Dying is just a fact of life, so we just accept it

* Celebrate every day as it comes

* Animals are not afraid of death

* Accept death and every day becomes a gift

* Being present to the new is most important

* Someone caring helps a person go through griefwork

* The griefwork process is a natural process

* Hoping caused me to give up my power

* The power comes from a sense of reality and possibility of a future

* Having peace with reality and living with it

* Sin = unskilled behavior

* Blessing the one who hurt myself once and do anything to say “good-bye” to the past

* People know what they need to do re griefwork; another person can only facilitate

* When I faced reality and the trembling stopped; realize and admit the connection

* Face fear rather than running from it; it no longer how power over me - able to take a new relationship to it

* Patterns (self talk) which are limiting - need to clear out garbage, tendency to give orders, need to ask helpful questions - body language gives me away
