Quote by Shelby Forsythia

“We don’t grieve things that don’t matter to us. Grieving is just another way of saying, “I care a whole, whole lot about the person I’ve lost, and it’s hard not having them here.” The next time you start to beat yourself up for feeling grief, gently remind yourself that grief is not a sign that something is wrong with you; it’s evidence that you had a strong connection to the person you’ve lost.”

“You are just chilling... lost in your thoughts. A question comes to you with a tone of care and love, “why are you upset?” Even though you are not upset, you actually become upset just to get that sympathy and care. This is a sad truth. You have to be unwell and upset in order to get care and love. So mind keeps searching for reasons to be upset. Even body starts falling sick in hope of getting care and love. Body starts ageing. Perhaps abundance of love can make one immortal.”

“When I was little my balloon burst as we were walking home from a children’s party one afternoon. I saw a balloon about once a year so it was a huge loss. Mum bent down, picked the flaccid piece of rubber off the pavement, stretched it tight across her lips and twisted it as she sucked in her breath. Then she tied the old piece of string tightly around the little piece of rubber dangling from her lips and pulled a miniature balloon out of her mouth. She said the balloon had had a baby, it was a baby balloon. I stopped crying and trailed it after me all the way home. A baby balloon.”
