<p>Nathasha Wagner once said, "I had to learn to have a relationship with someone who wasn&rsquo;t there anymore." That can feel like an impossible feat, but grief shows us how. When listening to grief, mourners create these relationships in countless ways. They write letters to deceased loved ones. Finish projects in their honor or create things in their memory. Mourners wear items of their loved ones&rsquo; clothing or donate to their favorite organizations. They consider how their loved ones solved dilemmas and try to proceed in a similar manner. Like Nathasha, mourners recognize that their loved ones are&nbsp;<strong>gone, but very near</strong>.</p>
