GRIEF

 ---The five stages of grief as put forth by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross are 1] Denial 2] Anger 3] Bargaining Phase 4] Despair 5] Acceptance. It is very important to identify the object of your grief. Then identify your relationship with that object and what occurred that has you so bent out of shape. It is a very good opportunity to experience growth...yourself.
---The five stages of grief are identical to the stages that we go through...as we ACCEPT - anything/everything. Very much a part of my life, as I dealt with my missing fingers...and, its ACCEPTANCE. [I grieved for the missing fingers...as it were.]
