Swimming in the Depths of Grief

In this chapter, they discuss the experience of grief and the process of coming out of it. They use the analogy of swimming in a body of water to describe the emotional journey. They talk about how initially, you are on the surface and afraid of what lies beneath, but eventually, you get pulled down into the depths of grief. They describe the feeling of panic and the gradual disappearance of color and light. Eventually, they reach the bottom of the ocean and make peace with their situation. From that point, they start to float back up to the surface, experiencing a shift and a sense of beauty and gratitude. They emphasize that this experience of grief allows them to understand and show compassion for others who are going through similar struggles.
