Quotes by David Kessler  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Each person's grief is as unique as their fingerprint. But what everyone has in common is that no matter how they grieve, they share a need for their grief to be witnessed. That doesn't mean needing someone to try to lessen it or reframe it for them. The need is for someone to be fully present to the magnitude of their loss without trying to point out the silver lining.”
David Kessler, Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief

“But like it or not, change happens and, like most things in life, doesn't really happen /to us/ - it just happens.”
David Kessler, Life Lessons: Two Experts on Death and Dying Teach Us About the Mysteries of Life and Living

“You don't have to experience grief, but you can only avoid it by avoiding love. Love and grief are inextricably intertwined.”
David Kessler, Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief
