Grief can be understood as a series of circles.

At the center are the people most directly impacted by the loss—those experiencing the deepest, most immediate grief. They need space for comfort, presence, and care to flow inward toward them.

Surrounding them are close family and loved ones, then wider circles of friends, colleagues, and community. Each circle represents a different level of connection and impact.

Support flows inward. Those in the outer circles offer comfort, steadiness, and care to those closer to the center, who are carrying the heaviest emotional weight. It also reminds us to be mindful about where we place our own needs in moments of collective grief.

There’s no perfect way to navigate loss—just a shared effort to gently hold and support one another, one circle at a time.

There’s no perfect way to navigate grief—just a shared effort to support the people at the center while also acknowledging that everyone is affected in different ways.

In French, there's no direct way to say "I miss you."

Instead, they say tu me manques — which translates literally to you are missing from me.

When you lose someone you love, that's exactly what it feels like. Not just that they're gone — but that a part of you is gone with them. There's an empty space where they used to be. In your day, in your home, in your hands.

Grief isn't just about losing someone. It's about suddenly having to exist in a world where part of you is absent.

Tu me manques. You are missing from me.

Maybe the French understood something about love and loss that the rest of us are still trying to find words for.

We're so excited to be part of something that makes this community so special. 🍷✨

The Downtown Campbell Wine Walk is back, and Darling Fischer is proud to be opening our doors as a participating stop. We know — a funeral home on a wine walk might surprise you. But that's exactly why we love it.

We've always believed that we are, first and foremost, a part of this community. And what better way to show that than to welcome our neighbors in, pour a glass, and let you see the warm, beautiful space we've created — a place built not just for times of loss, but for connection, comfort, and care.

The Wine Walk winds through Downtown Campbell's eclectic shops and eateries on a magical evening filled with wine tasting and live music — and we'd love for you to stop in and say hello while you're exploring.

This event is also the primary way the Downtown Campbell Business Association raises funds to support year-round community events Downtown Campbell, so every ticket purchased goes back to making this town the special place it is.

🎟️ Grab your tickets at DowntownCampbell.com before prices go up — and we'll see you downtown.

🌧️"The best thing one can do when it's raining is let it rain." — Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Sometimes grief asks nothing of us except to feel it.

We live in a world that often wants to rush past the hard moments — to find the silver lining, to stay strong, to move forward. But healing doesn't always look like moving. Sometimes it looks like sitting still, letting the tears fall, and trusting that the storm has a purpose.

Grief doesn't follow a schedule. It shows up when it wants, stays longer than we'd like, and rarely makes sense. But there is something quietly powerful about giving yourself permission to just feel it — without trying to explain it away or push through it before you're ready.

The rain doesn't apologize for falling. And you don't have to apologize for hurting.

When you're grieving, sleep can feel like the last thing your body wants to cooperate with. Your mind races, your heart hurts, and rest feels almost impossible — or maybe even guilty, like you shouldn't be allowed to feel okay. 🌙

But here's what we want you to know: sleep isn't an escape from your grief. It's part of moving through it.

Grief is exhausting in a way that's hard to put into words. It's not just emotional — it lives in your body. Your nervous system is working overtime, and rest isn't a luxury right now. It's medicine.

While you sleep, your brain is processing pain, consolidating memories, and regulating the emotions that feel so overwhelming during the day. Sleep is actually helping you heal.

And when sleep is disrupted — which it often is during grief — everything gets harder. The sadness feels heavier, patience runs thin, and even small tasks can feel impossible. That's not weakness. That's biology.

Resting is not giving up.

Sleeping is not forgetting.

Taking care of your body is taking care of your grief.

You don't have to earn rest. Healing is hard work — and it happens even while you sleep.

Have you ever walked away from a conversation feeling more drained than when you started — like somehow it became about everything except what you actually needed?

That's the difference between someone holding space for you and someone (unintentionally) hijacking it.

Most of us have been on both sides of this. Swipe to learn more. 👉

Pastor Ryan Wright reminds us that even though we may not have chosen to be where we're at - enduring loss and grief and heartache - we can chose to ask for support, comfort, and companionship.

We choose how we respond - to isolate and hide away - or to feel our feelings and show up, one small step at a time.

This 2024 Guiding Grief episode offers insights, perspectives, and compassion from someone who has spent decades walking alongside those who are struggling.

Even if you've heard this episode with Pastor Wright before, it's worth another listen.

You can find it on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
