Uplifting Grief Quotes To Help Overcome The Loneliness

Overcoming the loss of someone you love is never easy. Losing a friend or a partner is a harsh truth that no one ever wants to face. While it is true that all of us process grief in our own way, we cannot deny the power that words hold on us. Words can soothe the difficult journey of recovery that lies ahead. 

There is no timeline for grieving. Some people take days to recover from their loss, some take months. While there are some people that never recover from losing their loved ones.  Their loved ones remain engraved in their hearts forever while they silently plunge deep down into their loneliness. 

Loneliness comes in all shapes and forms. Being lonely does not mean not having company or any friends to spend time with. You can also be alone and surrounded by people who you feel like no one understands you. You are alone when your heart wants to shout and scream out all the pain inside but your mouth only smiles because you feel like no one will feel the pain like you do. Being in a room full of people and not being able to find a single soul who understands you or your pain is the worst form of loneliness. 

It is undoubtedly difficult to understand what someone is going through, but we can do what is within our power.  We can let them know that they are not alone and that they can rely on us in this time of need. Use these uplifting and comforting quotes to show your support.

Uplifting Quotes

Take your broken heart, make it into art

Carrie Fisher

 

I’ve had a great deal of suffering in my life… I’ve had a lot of things happen to me that I don’t talk about in the press. I’ve had a lot of really heartbreaking, difficult things. But all of those things have strengthened my resolve to make the best of my life

Gwyneth Paltrow

 

There are many stages of grief. It’s sad, something coming to an end. It cracks you open, in a way—cracks you open to feeling. When you try to avoid the pain, it creates greater pain.

Jennifer Aniston

 

When I was in love, I fell so hard. I was really, really, really in love. The way it made me feel was priceless. And in a blink of an eye my whole life changed. Everything that I knew was different. I never thought I’d feel that pain in my life. I’m afraid of feeling that again

Rihanna

Priyanka Chopra

 

I think it’s great to have been wrong in love and been destroyed and heartbroken. I just think it makes what you imagined to be a life choice better. Everybody should date, if that’s what you’re interested in, and you should be wrong, and you should break some hearts and your heart should be broken, and you should lay in bed in your old days next to a telephone, looking at it, hoping it’s going to ring, and be disappointed that it never does

Sarah Jessica Parker

Emma Stone

 

I was so scared of ever being alone, and I think, conquering that fear, this year, was actually bigger than any other transition that I had. I don’t ever want to have to need someone again where you feel like, without them, you can’t be yourself

Miley Cyrus

 

When people get in your face and say, ‘This will pass,’ you think, Are they crazy? I’m never gonna feel any better than I feel right this minute. And nothing’s ever gonna make sense again. And I still have moments where I’m like, nothing’s ever gonna make sense again

Reese Witherspoon

 

Imagine spreading everything you care about on a blanket and then tossing the whole thing up in the air. The process of divorce is about loading that blanket, throwing it up, watching it all spin, and worrying what stuff will break when it lands

Amy Poehler

 

The truth is, I should be angry, resentful and disillusioned about relationships. But I’m not. Love did not work with that person. But it can work with another

Eva Longoria

 

As women, we go into marriage thinking it’s going to last forever and that this is our prince on a shiny horse. That’s what fairytales taught me as a kid… We go in there with that hope, so when it falls apart it feels like a huge failure and a huge disappointment. I’ve often felt guilty and responsible. I’ve suffered a lot of pain and anguish

Halle Berry

 

What you need to know is, nobody can save you or heal you. Only you can do that for you

Jennifer Lopez

 

I know the yearning… It’s a huge, aching yearning. And the loss! The loss of a miscarriage is not talked about enough. That’s massive grief to certain women. There’s an enormous amount of pain—and an enormous amount of joy on the other side of it. The flipside of going through so much yearning and pain to get there is the feeling of ‘Ahhhh!’ when you have the child

Nicole Kidman

 

A heartbroken person is unlike any other person. Their time moves at a completely different pace than ours. It’s this mental, physical, emotional ache and feeling so conflicted. Nothing distracts you from it. Then time passes, and the more you live your life and create new habits, you get used to not having a text message every morning saying, ‘Hello, beautiful. Good morning

Taylor Swift

 

 I am a little shy this time because I am not as strong inside as I have been in the past. It’s not something I wanted. There’s nothing nice about it. It’s just hard. Sometimes maybe it appears I am pulling it all together, but really I am just trying to get through my days

Angelina Jolie

 

What scares me is that I’m going to ultimately find out at the end of my life that I’m really not lovable, that I’m not worthy of being loved. That there’s something fundamentally wrong with me… The fight against gravity for me is to find that love for myself that gives me the courage to reach my fullest potential

Demi Moore

 

You just think you’re never gonna get up off of the floor, you think you’re never gonna get out of the funk that you’re in and you do, the sun rises the next day, and you get up, and you just keep going

Jordin Sparks

 

I would rather have my heart broken a thousand times than never to love at all. I have so much love to give—I’m not empty of love, I’m full of love

Cameron Diaz

Recap

Remember to be kin to yourself. Like everything else, grief also comes in stages. It is best to accept these feelings rather than suppressing them. Grief and joy go hand in hand. One cannot exist without the other. Know that there is always hope. Hope for a better tomorrow. Hope for happiness. Hope to live again. 

It is always best to try and voice your feelings. Confide in someone you trust. You don’t have to fight all these battles yourself. It is okay to lean on someone every once in a while. If you know someone who is suffering from grief, if you cannot do anything for them, lend them a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on. Be there for one another in this hour. 

You can also share these words for uplifting their mood and provide them hope. No matter what, Always love yourself.
