NUGGETS: Bite-Sized Lessons to Help You Live, Lead, and Think Better18 Okt

Grief: When Is It Okay to Laugh Again?

Grief: When Is It Okay to Laugh Again?

How soon is too soon to feel happy after losing someone you love? Is it okay to laugh while you're still grieving? And why do we sometimes feel guilty when we start enjoying life again?

In this follow-up to Grief Is the Price We Pay for Love, François opens up about life after losing his beloved dog, César. He's still grieving, still missing him terribly, but something unexpected has started happening. He's laughing again. And sometimes, he even forgets to think about César. So why does that make him feel guilty?

Pellegrino and François explore the unwritten rules of grief, the pressure to mourn for an acceptable amount of time, and why moving forward doesn't mean leaving someone behind.

Along the way, there are stories about funerals, laughter, friendship, and a beautiful scene from Pixar's Up that captures what it means to give yourself permission to enjoy life again.

And, because this is NUGGETS, we finish with three practical things you can do to help yourself move forward, at your own pace, without feeling guilty about feeling good.

Because laughing again doesn't mean you've stopped loving.
