Older modernist models emphasized a need to break bonds with the loved one and 'let go' in order to be able to move on.</P> <P><I>"We can continue to 'have' what we have 'lost' , that is a continuing, albeit transformed, love for the deceased. We have not truly lost our years of living with the deceased or our memories. Nor have we lost their influences, the inspiration, the values and meanings embodied in their lives. We can actively incorporate these into new patterns of living that include the transformed but abiding relationships with those that we have cared about and loved" </I>Worden</P> <P>Rosie Grant's Events;</P> <P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&#8226;2nd July 2010.
