Our Grip
When grief grips grit fails.
We lose our grip when we lose our grit. Nothing then makes sense. We tell our stories to ease our miseries. Yet nothing consoles until we reclaim ourselves.

About Me
- Joel
- Greensboro, NC, United States
- I'm a former trainer with the Dun & Bradstreet Corporation. I quit, however, in October of 2000 to pursue my dream of becoming a writer. In route, I became homeless temporarily and lost my stuff (though not my esteem). Most recently, I spent seven years lecturing in the philosophy department of UNC-Charlotte, where I previously obtained an MA in Liberal studies and Advanced Certification in Professional and Applied Ethics. I resigned in May of 2008 to pursue a Doctorate degree in Educational Leadership, which I received in May 2012 with a Concentration in Adult & Higher Education. Previously, I received my BA in English from Guilford College. I've also written over 40 books. (www.joelbryant1.com). I recently launched For Dreamers Only Academy (http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3NLjUDRFnUjIdn_BF2IECQ?feature=mhee, a virtual platform dedicated to helping others achieve greatness. http://www.drjoelbryant.webs.com
Along these lines, it would seem that we cannot reclaim ourselves until we abandon the resistance to the grief at hand. But this is counter intuitive as resistance is our natural instinct when grief arrives.
