How Atheists Cope with Grief

“Trauma happens when a tragedy surpasses a person’s ability to cope.”
― Suddenly Silent and Still
― Suddenly Silent and Still
“No one’s trauma is greater than that of another because the grief being felt is equal. The only difference is the story.”
― Suddenly Silent and Still
― Suddenly Silent and Still
“Whatever the mind believes, the body has a better chance of becoming. An absolute diagnosis is therefore not only false, but also unhelpful.”

“At some point in their life, everyone is given a mission - something they are called to do. And what's important to remember is that, no matter how difficult that undertaking may be , it's their duty to fulfill that task. One day, you may be called to do something you don't think you have the strength to handle - something that scares you. It may even terrify you. That's when you need to dig deep inside yourself and find the courage. It's there.”

"Seneca, a Roman philosopher, is attributed to having said, “If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favourable.” I humbly disagree. If one does not know to which port one is sailing, all winds are favourable." ~ Nin Mok in Suddenly Silent and Still (upcoming book).
