Grieving Quotes - Page 18

• Cuanto más vivo, más me aflige ver al hombre, que ocupa su lugar supremo con el fin de imponer su voluntad a la naturaleza, y liberarse a sí mismo y a los suyos de una necesidad indignante, verlo enredado en una noción falsa, y haciendo justo lo contrario de lo que quiere hacer; y luego, porque toda la inclinación de su mente está estropeada, chapucear miserablemente en todo.

  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

• Being a homicide detective ca be the loneliest job in the world. The friends of the victim are upset and in despair, but sooner or later - after weeks or months - they go back to their everyday lives. For the closest family it takes longer, but for the most part, to some degree, they too get over the grieving and despair. Life has to go on; it does go on. But the unsolved murders keep gnawing away and in the end there's only one person left who thinks night and day about the victim: it's the office who is left with the investigation.

• ¿Así que me rehuyes? - ¡te encierras y te afliges solo! Preferiría que hubieras venido a reprenderme con vehemencia. Eres apasionada: Esperaba una escena de algún tipo. Estaba preparada para la lluvia caliente de las lágrimas; sólo quería que se derramaran sobre mi pecho: ahora las ha recibido un suelo sin sentido, o tu pañuelo empapado. Pero me equivoco: ¡no has llorado en absoluto! Veo una mejilla blanca y un ojo descolorido, pero ni rastro de lágrimas. ¿Supongo, entonces, que tu corazón ha estado llorando sangre?

• Estoy atrapado luchando en el agua fría, y todo lo que puedo hacer es afligirme, afligirme, en el horror necesario de la mañana, amargamente me odio a mí mismo, amargamente es demasiado tarde, sin embargo, aunque me siento mejor, todavía me siento efímero e irreal e incapaz de enderezar mis pensamientos o incluso realmente afligirme, de hecho me siento demasiado estúpido para estar realmente amargado, en resumen, no sé lo que estoy haciendo y me están diciendo qué hacer.

• Cuando nuestros hijos mueren, los dejamos caer en lo desconocido, temblando de miedo. Sabemos que se alejan de nosotros, y nos paramos, nos compadecemos y nos maravillamos. Si recibiéramos la noticia de que alguien les ha dejado cien mil dólares al morir, entraríamos en un éxtasis de júbilo; pero cuando se han ido a casa con Dios, nos quedamos de pie, llorando, compadeciéndonos y maravillándonos ante el misterio de la Providencia.

• Melanie still grieves for Jared," she stated. I felt my head nod without willing the action. "You grieve for him." I closed my eyes. "The dreams continue?" "Every night," I mumbled. "Tell me about then." Her voice was soft, persuasive. "I don't like to talk about them." "I know. Try. It might help." "How? How will it help to tell you that I see his face every time I close my eyes? That I wake up and cry when he's not there? That the memories are so strong I can't separate hers from mine anymore?

• In the fall, you don't grieve because the leaves are falling and dying. You say, "Isn't it beautiful!" Well, we're the same way. There are seasons. We all fall sooner or later. It's all so beautiful. And our concepts, without investigation, keep us from knowing this. It's beautiful to be a leaf, to be born, to fall, to give way to the next, to become food for the roots. It's life, always changing its form and always giving itself completely. We all do our part. No mistake.

  Byron Katie
