Hunter S. Thompson
It’s like that dream where you show up to school and you’re wearing nothing but your underwear. Somehow, some way, you got to school, made it to the classroom — at one point you had the agency, some decision had to have been made. But now you’re here, and the agency you once had guided you to a place where choice has been lost. You are naked in front of the school. It’s like Hunter S. Thompson’s broken wave — a recognition that to surf, to succeed in the world, necessitates knowing that the wave will break and recede and disappear.

Don't expect others to 'get over' their grief
Move on!”The expectation that one should find closure a year after suffering major losses is commonplace. Losses and the grief that ensues are often trivialized by others, an experience the mental-health counselor Kenneth J. Doka calls “disenfranchised grief.” For example, women who are flooded with sorrow after suffering miscarriages frequently have their suffering dismissed by their obstetricians, who claim that miscarriages are par for the course. Early theories about grief suggested that full recovery from significant losses was the optimal and attainable endpoint. Sigmund Freud’s formula for a healthy grief response promoted closure by detaching from the deceased person or other losses. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross’s five stages of grief — denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance — imply that one can successfully recover by journeying through her five stages step-by-step.
