Grief is not a problem to solve. It's a journey to walk.

People want to help when you're grieving, and sometimes they try to fix it. Stay busy. Look on the bright side. Everything happens for a reason.

But grief isn't a broken thing that needs fixing. It's a path you walk — slowly, unevenly, with benches along the way where you have to sit down for a while.

There's no shortcut. There's no right speed. Some days you walk far. Some days you just sit.

Let yourself walk it. And let the people who love you walk beside you, without needing to fix anything.
