Philosophy

“Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers for in doing so some have entertained angels without knowing.”

People always come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.

In Confucius’ idea of the ideal state, the rulers were kind, religion was properly celebrated, and the wise were treasured. Despite living in difficult times and often in exile, Confucius spent his life seeking to help others achieve this.

Whether it’s you or your loved one dealing with a terminal illness or grieving the loss of someone close, these stages can be thought of as a valuable model that shows grief is not just sadness—but a multitude of feelings, emotions, and experiences that will be unique for each person. It’s a tool to help us find greater acceptance as we progress through our grieving journey, one with no end in sight.
