Grieving the Life You Expected: Nonfinite Grief and Loss
Good article on nonfinite grief. This type of grief deals with loss moments in life or where we think we should be and are not. Or what we wish we had and how it impacted us. It is difficult to deal with but something that needs to be faced. Not all loss is finite or a result of a specific loss that is tangible. Dreams and other issues of what we wish had been are also loss.
