Losing a Child - Views of a Father - CLA004-009
In this an excerpt of my sort of TED Talk on grief and losing ones child.
I provide my views as a father on the loss of our son and hope to support others in their grief in the process.
Grieving for a child is a very challenging life experience. The unbearable loss stings like nothing else. It's like losing a limb.
Please do leave comments I will be happy to engage you and receive feedback on my video.
In the full length podcast I touch on multiple related topics, such as
- reactions of people around you
- surprises in who comes to support and who may not
- challenges for other people to be helpful or
even being able to talk about it
- grieving situations at work
- the first year of grief
- finding (local) support (groups)
- different shades and stories of loss
- the big question - "Why?"
- processing the reasons and coincidences of the loss
- fragility of life
- catching oneself in the thoughts and emotions and not getting stuck
- blaming oneself or the lost person - forgive
- music can be help the healing process
- letting emotions rise
- faith and grieving
- More big questions -
"what is the purpose of life" -
"what happens after death"
- Reminder of your own mortality
- Allowing to look at your own mortality and belief system
- Understanding the fragility of life
- Taking a long hard look in order to heal and manage the loss
- double check your (religious) belief system
- rebirth / reincarnation / meeting again in heaven?
- understanding the interconnectedness of all of us and the universe
- science of consciousness
- healing from the loss at your own pace
- siblings - talk to them and be in touch in the process in their specific loss
- spouse - enduring the pain of the partner - being present
- closing thoughts on life and death
- life is nothing but little deaths - everything is ever changing
- the human experience makes the loss unbearable, yet...
- looking at death to understand life
