C.S. Lewis’, A Grief Observed, provides a poetic portrayal of his experience with grief after the death of his wife. In the book, Lewis states:
“This is important. One never meets just Cancer, or War, or Unhappiness (or Happiness). One only meets each hour or moment that comes. All manner of ups and downs. Many bad spots in our best times, and many good ones in our worst. One never gets the total impact of what we call 'the thing itself.' But we call it wrongly. The thing itself is simply all these ups and downs: the rest is a name or an idea”
