Other Examples of Transforming Grief into Servicing a Larger Cause

Some ofther example of transforming grief into service...

Parents channel grief over daughter’s death to books for sick kids

Motivated by grief, Bellevue woman fights drunken driving

I should probably add that this strategy can be abused if it's being done to avoid the grief. In order to transform grief you do need to feel it first. I didn't like it when my master's program wouldn't let me do any grief counseling for 2 years after my mom died but they were right. I needed to attend to my own grief first.
