Quote revisited

I included this quote under the post titled "Joy" but I felt like it needed more attention.

Grief is derived from the Latin verb meaning to be burdened. For some, grief can feel like a heavy burden. Mourning is derived from the Latin verb meaning be anxious. Mourning is a process of remembering what was lost and provides a way for our bodies, minds and hearts to metabolize loss.

Definition of metabolize:  process, to change into a form that can be used by your body;
to process and use (substances)
