“The best medicine you can bring for sadness is not joy. it is not telling them that they need to move on or get over it or realize how much worse things could be. no. the medicine for a spirit in mourning is tenderness. and warmth. and compassion. and connection. and presence. sit with someone in their grief and let them cry their ugly tears. do not shine and scurry grief away. they must walk through it. this is love. to abandon all that we think we know and be so full of grace that we are invited in to partake in someone else's darkest moments. what an honour it is to simply be a light. the antidote for sadness is love. it is always love.” “對于悲傷，你能提供的最佳良藥并非歡樂，也不是告訴他們必須振作起來，或者要他們學會釋懷，或是認識到情況本可能糟糕得多。不，為沉浸在哀傷中的人準備的良藥是溫柔、溫暖、同情、聯結和在場。與那些悲傷的人坐在一起，讓他們盡情宣泄那些難過的淚水。不要用光芒和匆忙來驅散悲傷，他們必須自己走過這段路。這就是愛——放棄我們自以為知曉的一切，充滿優雅，從而被邀請參與他人的最黑暗時刻。能僅僅成為一束光，是多么榮幸的事啊。對抗悲傷的良藥就是愛，而且這愛始終如一。”
