the one that got away - how do you handle grief?


I just lost a bid for my dream speakers that I had been chasing for a decade. It was pretty stupid because I missed the last hour and maybe I would have won it with another $100. But maybe it's a sign, it's just a piece of hardware, that I should not be obsessed with. - "you can't always get what you want"

Did you always get the gear you thought would make you whole?

The meaning of any words, especially one like "grief" have no universal definition. Up to the individual using these words. 

So tell members like faustuss to get stuffed. He knows nothing about your life and what troubles you have seen. He is just being dramatic and petty.

Faustuss might also lecture you at what point the expenditures on your hobbies get excessive and worthy of guilt.

 

 

@kennyc the story has taken a turn for the worst and I was too embarrassed to tell. 

I am done mourning and I am banging my head against the wall. I mixed up the seven stages of grief.

@audition__audio I disagree with the general assumption that meaning of words are up to the individual. But in my next life, I will use this argument in all my exams when I am clueless. (which is my registered address according to the @thecarpathian Institute)
