“One must wonder at the invisibility of sorrowing in North American culture. We lack a tolerant, understanding community to hold us in our wild grief. We’re taught to repress our deep mournful emotions. We seldom witness a person crying let alone wailing, weeping, or keening. Control is paramount. Being stoic the ideal. The average bereavement leave in the USA is three days. The societal undercurrent is to just get over it.”
