Grief causes you to leave yourself. You step outside your narrow little pelt. And you cant feel grief unless youve had love before it - grief is the final outcome of love, because its love lost. [] Its the cycle of love completed: to love, to lose, to feel grief, to leave, and then to love again. Grief is the awareness that you will have to be alone, and there is nothing beyond that because being alone is the ultimate final destiny of each individual living creature. Thats what death is, the great loneliness.
