Kate said grief

Kate said grief I confess, after all, you all are my good friends and usually know if I’m sincere or snarky, I didn’t like her word choice for the Friday before GratefulGiving, aka Thanksgiving.

Grieving

Bearing One Another’s Grief “Sitting shiva” refers to the act of sitting on low stools during times of mourning.
