"The interesting thing about grief, I think, is that it is its own size. It is not the size of you. It is its own size. And grief comes to you. You know what I mean? Iâ€™ve always liked that phrase â€œHe was visited by grief,â€ because thatâ€™s really what it is. Grief is its own thing. Itâ€™s not like itâ€™s in me and Iâ€™m going to deal with it. Itâ€™s a thing, and you have to be okay with its presence. If you try to ignore it, it will be like a wolf at your door."
