|
Jan 30th 2015 | 65

| Grieving is selfish, and that's okay. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 43
|
| selfish? I think it's natural... |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 45
|
| Of course it's natural. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 50
|
| Grieving isn't selfish, it's a natural process of coping with death |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 49
|
| Y'all are getting hung up on one word and missing the entire p oint. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 51
|
| Ain't no sides. You just made an illogical error. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 54
|
| no, she's right. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 57
|
| Money. In my pastoral counseling classes grief has never been described |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 59

| what's the definition of selfish? |

|
Jan 30th 2015 | 91
|
| hmm.. you explained this well but I still don't agree |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 101
|
| what if instead of the word selfish, we used "internalized" |

|
Feb 02nd 2015 | 142
|
| so your only argument for whether or not something is, is whether or not... |
|
Feb 02nd 2015 | 143
|
| Hey man. I'm looking at the matter holistically. |
|
Feb 02nd 2015 | 145
|
| bro, what does any of that have to do with a simple definition? |
|
Feb 02nd 2015 | 146
|
| Because WORDS matter. |
|
Feb 02nd 2015 | 148
|
| I got love for you Case and you know it, but you're saying... |
|
Feb 02nd 2015 | 149
|
| nah, while I think it's selfish to want someone to remain in pain |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 68
|
| You're focused on the connotation, not the meaning. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 87
|
| I'm aware being selfish isn't always a negative |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 100
|
| That's why we typically don't use the word when referring to grief. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 104
|
| gotcha |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 109
|
| it is, yes. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 74
|
| You're right about that. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 139

|
Jan 30th 2015 | 61
|
| right but the other option is worse. |
|
Jan 30th 2015 | 78
