"My mom died."
"I have cancer."
"I can't have kids."

These and other conversation-killing reasons we might not talk about grief on this week's post.

A family portrait from the mid 1980s. In the center back a white man with dark hair, full beard and mustache sits in a white polo shirt. On his lap is a blonde little girl in q pink crished velvet top. At his knee stands a precocious little girl with white-blonde hair wearing floral print overalls and matching shirt. At the left front sits a white woman in her mid-twenties. Her brown hair feathered and blown out. She wears gold jewelry and a white sport coat over a jewel-toned plaid button-down shirt. Text over the image reads: "why don't we talk about grief? Nobody wants to be the lead balloon. For something as universally experienced as grief, it's amazing to me how little we talk about it."

An image of a smiley face drawn on a foggy window, with text on top. The text reads, "It's okat to laugh and to cry. Having feelings and expressing them is the whole point. Laughing while grieving may feel incongruous. Then again, so is much of life."

Image of a little white girl from the late 1980s with a high side-pony braid and ratted bangs. She's making a face that looks confused. She's wearing a necklace of chunky hearts that make a rainbow over her flower print overalls & matching ruffle sleeve turtleneck. Text over the image reads: "When we don't grieve. What happens when there's loss and we don't feel grief? There are some losses that just don't hit the same. Because we're human we want to know - is it normal to not feel sad sometimes? The short answer is: yes. The longer answer is, well, longer." A link at the bottom of the image reads: "chelseajonescreates.substack.com"

A dark haired and bearded man stands in a backyard wearing a white shirt, maroon tie, and olive brown slacks, and a hand-knit cardigan with colors based on a European Kestrel with contrasting ribbing in a color called Dove. The sky is a vibrant blue with wisps of clouds.

When you make your husband a cardigan, but sneak it for a first wearing because it's chilly out 😏😬 #LetsMakeSomethingBeautiful #Knitwear
