Today has been declared a National Day of Mourning to give Australians the opportunity to mourn the death of Queen Elizabeth II. This interview that I did with Angela Cox on Channel 7 asks the question - Why do many of us mourn the death of Her Majesty? youtu.be/I9Q3H_oVgVI

2. We do nothing for people’s understanding of death, or of grief, by using euphemisms.

While I understand the sadness of so many so many people on the death of the Queen, I am getting increasingly frustrated with the ever-growing avoidance of the true description of what happened. She died. She didn’t pass or even pass away. She died. As we all will! /2

What do I say when someone is grieving? When a person is grieving it can be hard to know what to say. The empathy we feel may urge us to want to ‘take away’ a person’s suffering or distract them from painful feelings.

I’m reading this at the moment and this phrase is just unreal and accurate to anyone (almost everyone) who has been there.

12 June 1929 | A German Jewish girl, Anne Frank, was born in Frankfurt.
In 1942 on her 13th birthday she received an empty diary. She perished in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945.

Seven years ago I took appointments in an Apple retail store for 8 hours a day. Twenty three years ago I would play shareware for hours on end on our huge Power Macintosh 5400 Directors Edition. Today we won an Apple Design Award. Life comes at you fast.
