Reaching out during grief works both ways.
We're thankful when others support us, and we can assist our own healing by offering support to those who are grieving.
Extending kindness to others is a means of extending kindness to ourselves.
It helps them.
It helps us.
That's because we are actually one with others. We are all connected like undifferentiated drops in a single ocean.
Practising empathy heals humanity.
When the time is right for you.
Lead yourself well.
