The Phenomenology of Grief
Grief is a unity. It's it's a mental state. We don't speak of the judgment of grief. The stomach ache of grief, even though grief has moments where it seems like a judgment and it has moments when it seems more like a pain. I find it phenomenologically in the contemporary sense, I find it very much like a fever because it has it comes and goes, you know, these pangs of grief. And so, my thought is, well, if the phenomenal character, as it were, diminishes, the grief itself diminishes because the phenomenal character is one with the grief. Or at least that's how I'd motivate it.
