Allow Them To Grieve

When our loved ones are grieving, sometimes, we are at a loss about comforting them.  Yes, we may say things such as, “he/she is in a better place now,” or, “at least he/she is no longer in (physical) pain,” or even, “time will heal the pain” and while these things may or may not be so after we have said these words where do we go from there?

One of the best things that we could do for them is to allow them to grieve.

You see, the truth is, there is not much more that we could say or do to stop them from being in this state of sadness. Therefore, we should allow them to grieve.

They are sad, and they should be allowed to be unhappy. Yes, we should not force our loved ones to be happy before they are ready to accept it.

Although we want them to stop hurting, usually, the best remedy for them is for them to grieve.

True, one or two drivers can miss average the gap, but come on, every time that the traffic light changes? Pedestrians are not beggars at the side of the road, asking drivers to show them mercy by allowing them to get to the other sid...

Andorra – A Shared Country

Andorra is sandwiched between France and Spain, and it is co-governed by the President of France and the Bishop of Urgell, who is in Spain.  Although Andorra has accommodations for a few helicopters, there are no airports here.  In fact, its closest airports are in France and Spain.  Therefore, those desiring to visit this country must travel through France or Spain and then travel by land, to get here. Perhaps due to sharing governmental powers, this country also shares the postal system.  France’s post boxes in this country are yellow, while Spain’s are red.
