Reminds me of listening to Colbert talk to Anderson Cooper years ago about grief. Cooper had just lost his mother and Colbert, in typical Tolkein nerd fashion, expanded on a quote from Tolkein: "What punishments from God are not gifts?" Not a believer myself but Colbert's thoughts were insightful.

beautiful, complicated relationship with my father, once I changed and allowed myself to forgive and accept him for who he was, our relationship changed, didn`t get amazing, but it shifted for me, took me 6-8 years to properly grieve his passing, my mothers passing? Still miss her daily

Thanks for opening up about this Scott. It’s like surfing - we ride the wave of grief when it arrives

I am a 62 year old woman who lost her 39 year old mom to cancer. I’m not over it. But I am smiling through these tears because of grief. Thank you from the bottom of my battered heart for a beautiful new perspective on this feature. I will count my receipts gratefully today 💙

You’re a good man. Im grateful for all you do. Big fan!

Thank you for sharing yourself with us; your tears, your grief, and most importantly your love.

Thank you for this Scott 👊🏻

tRump, Hegseth and Waters all have Mommy Issues!

MAGA men ALL have…. Mommy Issues!! Especially their leader!

Profound and a new perspective.. I appreciate that!

My mom died April 3, 2000. She was the light of my brother's, sister's lives, and my life. Not a day goes by that I don't think of her. She and my dad were married almost fifty years before he died. I, too, cry for her presence. Her memory has been a blessing. I grew up in Sherman Oaks.

@karaswisher.bsky.social just when you think there’s nothing but bad dick and lesbian jokes inside.

Thank you for sharing your vulnerability. 🥹🫶
