A Lifetime Doing Nothing (Story 94 excerpt)
Story 94 from 'A Lifetime Doing Nothing' by Ian McCrorie
.
With the death of a loved one, a grieving period is important, as
is understanding how the mind works and how doing nothing
with clear comprehension does not eliminate the grief. Once
again, grieving is a natural condition of the mind. It is neither
good nor bad. Some may be tempted to put on a happy face
to demonstrate the powers of meditation. They can keep up
the façade for a while. In time the effort to remain calm peters
out. The suppressed grief returns in a myriad of ways later in
life, when perhaps you cannot see a direct correlation between
what you are presently dealing with and the death of someone
close some months or even years before....
