Tears are the silent language of grief.

Voltaire

Why do we cry? Is there anyone who has never cried? We are born crying. Are they tears of fear, psychological discomfort, or physical distress? Who knows? It would seem safe to say we cry because we need to. It provides us with physical and emotional comfort. The tears of grief come at times of loss. Loss of home, physical health, jobs, anger, relationships and the ultimate loss of a loved one. Often times the bereaved will lament the fact that they cry too much. I can’t go here or there because I might cry. Thus isolating themselves because of crying, which is a natural part of healing after the death of a loved one. The tears that you shed are a tribute to the deceased. Give yourself permission to cry. Allow yourself to grieve openly as an expression of the love you feel for your loved one. 

“The Walk With Me” grief group is a safe place for you to cry and shed your tears of tribute to your loved one. The group meets at Trinity Family Counseling Center, 45052 Deshon, Utica, Michigan from 7 to 9 p.m. for six session seasonally.

It is facilitated by trained grief counselors.
