Comment on The Roman Catholic Church, Postmodernity, and Human Sexuality: The Power of 1,700 Years of History by jimarsenault

i think you are misunderstanding the author on that quote. What he is saying is that the Catholic Church does not ignore sound science. Truths about the human body which God designed are not totally known. The Catholic Church also supports Adult stem cell research. This does nothing but bring us closer to God by understanding his creation better. You may find St Thomas Aquinas works very fascinating to read.

I totally agree. I am still learning and growing. When our loss is personal and penetrating it has a way of changing our perspective.

Thank you again for reading and commenting.

Whoa, on second read, I just realized that Jacob has the same birthday as me, but I’m 2 years older!

Hi Victor,

It really is the most unique process to every single person because it’s complicated by the complex relationship you had with the deceased. And then, not only do you have to battle your own feelings you have yet to resolve with that person, you must come to terms with having those ‘unresolved issues’ and living with them, with sometimes no resolution. Or, you may have no “loose ends” but question your own grieving process.

Regardless, grief is way more complicated than it ever looks on the outside, and anyone who says differently may not have experienced a true loss before. That sounds way harsher than I mean it, but I can sincerely say I’ve lost many people before my mom, but I never experienced the same amount of grief as I am now.

Best,

Sunny

Thank you for taking the time to read. I also am grateful for your kind words. Mourning truly is one of the most personal and individualized experiences. It is different for everyone. There is no one “right” way to mourn. The process is varied never the same for any two people.

Hi there,

I 100% agree: Dull platitudes don’t ever help; in fact, they just help make you feel more alone and even less understood.

I don’t think the pain ever really goes away from a loss; I think it just changes form and depending on your relationship with that person, it can keep evolving over time or simply fade away. It’s always the unexpected lingering hurt that surprises us; it teaches you a lot about yourself and how you respond to (and feel) love, I think.

Love your “there is no expiration date on love”. Thank you so much for sharing.

Best,

Sunny
