These emotions are manifested in both my physical and spiritual self and can be symbolized with the five elements: spirit, water, fire air, and earth]]> 2020-08-26 17:56:17 UTC https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700737040 grossen21 https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700797705 Lanterns light the way for the souls of ancestors. To me, this element encapsulates the other elements as well. It draws upon the internal processing of the water, the purification of the fire, the conscious processing of the air, and the totality of the earth. I plan to interview my grandmother who has lost both of her parents. Maintaining an environment of reverence for those who passed is at the forefront of my concerns. Although I am afraid to be emotionally vulnerable, I also understand that what I am asking for must be graciously returned, and I am excited that interacting so closely with someone over this paradoxically unique and shared experience possesses the power to drastically change my own grief and loss process.  ]]> 2020-08-26 18:13:22 UTC https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700797705 grossen21 https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700813392 Water symbolizes the fluidity of grief and loss and the unconscious processing.  ]]> 2020-08-26 18:17:49 UTC https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700813392 grossen21 https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700818316 Fire acts as an agent of purification.]]> 2020-08-26 18:19:12 UTC https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700818316 grossen21 https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700820902 Air complements water as the conscious processing of grief and loss. ]]> 2020-08-26 18:19:55 UTC https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700820902 grossen21 https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700826032 Earth represents life and death. It asks that death be seen not as an eternal end, but as a new beginning. Through my grandmother's own grieving process, I am reminded of the universal ebb and flow which does not undermine the life of any being. Rather, it provides comfort that every loss is a shared suffering and every beginning is a shared celebration.]]> 2020-08-26 18:21:25 UTC https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/700826032 grossen21 https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/712882842 2020-09-01 18:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/grossen21/1rnztazsadsszt9u/wish/712882842
