It is not a matter of if; it is a matter of when we are all going to lose someone, lose a possession, lose a job; it happens to all of us at some point in our lives. You are either going through a storm, coming from a storm, or heading to the next storm. No one lives a problem-free life; the key to getting through the pain and hurt is to feel the pain and keep moving. Grief is painful and very hard to deal with; I have gone through my fair share – lost my closest cousin (2013), lost my mum to cancer (2019), and getting laid off (2020).

I know I will still go through some grief later in the future; it is a tough period to deal with, and having great people and resources around you can make the pain bearable. Here are some great books that helped me go through the pain and navigate the grief without losing myself.
