Finding the Meaning in the Tragic Loss of a Loved One
Though there are many factors making sudden, unexpected and violent deaths more difficult for those left behind, one of the big ones is the meaninglessness of it all. No matter how hard we try, these deaths make no sense. In trying to make sense out of them the grieving process generally becomes more complicated and prolonged.
Sometimes it is up to us to make meaning out of catastrophe. These two 9/11 widows are stellar examples of making meaning out of the senseless acts of violence that so profoundly touched their lives.
