While he may not be an educated grief counsellor, he has some advice for the millions of people clawing their way through the darkness that is grief.
“What does one do with this new empty space that they have? When someone's gone in their lives, there's two ways to go. One is to just go into deep dark depression, or you can find your way somehow to make the best of that new space,” he said.“There are these infamous stages of grief that, for me, I found that grief really has no timetable,” he said.
“It's OK to go really heavily into that dark place, into that grief space, and be there and sit there for as long as you need to,” he added.“The hardest thing for those of us that have been through this situation are those little moments in between, when you're just walking down the street on a Thursday and you see something that reminds you of that person or you hear a song or you read a poem or whatever you see a flower whatever that situation is.
