Grief comes in many shapes and forms. It may be the loss of a loved one, separation, divorce, or the loss of a job, or the sudden emptiness we feel when faced with the loss of something that was a major part of our lives. The Shapes of Grief was inspired by the dying to provide help for those who are struggling to understand the grieving person, and as a beacon of hope, for those of us who are dealing with the different shapes of our grief each and every day.
