It's not linear...

I had coffee with my friend Paul this morning. In December, their family was devastated by the loss of his son (mid-twenties) in a tragic car accident. We began our conversation with my gently asking him "how are you doing". He responded that it was hard, and...um...it's not linear. That truth instantly sparked: grief isn't linear.

During my drive to work after our conversation, I realized how many things in my normal, everyday life are un-linear. "I thought we dealt with that already... why is it coming up again?" "We've already done technology training." No doubt you have a few of your own.

Life is an iterative process.
