@andersoncooper: Sheryl Sandberg talks with Anderson Cooper about the connection she found between grief and joy after the death of her husband, Dave Goldberg, in 2015, and why she believes choosing to “let yourself feel some joy” can be a way of honoring a loved one.

Kimberly Archie :

Please don’t make parents who lost children feel like we should feel this way.

Samantha Paitakis :

not the grief of a child. I feel like I'm walking half dead and half alive. the Joy is always present with the grief. when you give birth to one you outlive... its a hell you can't explain.

Elaine :

Lost both my parents early in my life and lost my first love in my 30's. Grief does make you appreciate the people around you and the moments you get to celebrate. it's a constant reminder that so many in my life didn't get that opportunity.

Bea Dubb :

I lost my mom and I’m in the worst depression. I’m tired of fighting the suicidal thoughts. How do I find happiness again?

Jennifer :

Mine has been gone for only 1 1/2yrs. I am learning that. My man would want me to be happy. Yes everyday is special. The joy has been slow to come back to me. He was my only support system. Cant wait to get to heaven to see him.

ce :

I completely understand what she’s trying to say. Once you’ve experienced profound grief, the way you see life changes forever. You begin to recognize what truly matters, what doesn’t, and how little control we actually have over life, despite how much we believe otherwise. Grief is incredibly difficult, but perhaps those of us who have experienced such devastating loss understand, on a deeper level, just how precious life and human connections truly are. We learn that lesson in the hardest way possible, and often wish we had understood it before it was too late.

Sab6067 :

I loved her book. She has a great perspective on grieving.

Bree Green :

Joy is different than happiness. Joy is known through grief.

Barry Mark :

She’s amazing 💔 heartbreaking

Am :

Mmm k

Jennifer :

Maybe life is about understanding deaths in your life is about the life of who is gone. Living for someone is something more

swhysitmatter82 :

She is an incredible teacher.

CandiceS :

100% agree and acknowledge that losing my medically complex daughter about a year ago has changed my love and mindset for the other kids I have, actually all the children I know. They all are so precious and perfect to me. I continue to parent them as they need it (being firm when needed etc) but I love them all SO much more deeply 💜

Manuella🦋 :

I think I understand her

SeanaSeana :

This is the truth!!!! 100 %. 💜

Melissa Tonge Wallin :

Yes.

Brooklyn Irish :

My life is split. My grief pain that I shake my head because I cannot comprehend it. The other half, I am so grateful that I am present everyday. I cherish the people I love and I never take them for granted 💕

ella bailey’s legacy 🪽 :

Lose a child and you won’t ever say that.

sweet_surrender :
