“A grieving person is going to laugh again and smile again. They’re going to move forward. But that doesn’t mean that they’ve moved on.” Sharing the harrowing experience of losing her unborn baby, her father and her husband in a matter of months, author Nora McInerny (@noraborealis) challenges us to redefine our relationship with grief. In her talk, she says that instead of trying to escape grief, we must accept it will always be a part of who we are. “These are the experiences that mark us and make us just as much as the joyful ones. And just as permanently.” Watch her moving — and surprisingly funny — TED Talk here: http://t.ted.com/fY6fPdG
