Don't ask a bereaved person to be strong
when he cannot be.
Don't advise him not to cry,
because tears are part of grief.
Don't compare his loss to another,
because each grief is unique and personal.
Don't push him to hold back his emotions,
because that would be adding to their burden.
Accompanying him in his grief does not mean
giving him encouragement to take away his affliction.
Silence often means touching
with respect the soul of the one who is suffering.
