REBLOG: A Parody Of Platitudes

Today, I felt more like reblogging great content I found rather than writing something myself.  I came across this courtesy of Megan Devine’s Refuge In Grief page, but was delighted to find it came from a fellow WordPress blogger.  It’s the perfect satire to illustrate how ridiculous those platitudes are that we spout off because we don’t know what else to say to someone during tough times.  Both great food for thought but good for a laugh too….Thanks Chickydoodles!

The other day Mark and I drafted a text to someone facing a crisis. And, as we were thinking about things to say, we were also thinking about things not to say, most of which have been said to us.
