Scenario

When grief leads partners to different spiritual places

My wife and I both experienced profound loss this year and it's affecting our spiritual lives in completely opposite ways - she's finding deep comfort in practices that now feel empty to me, and I'm finding meaning in questions that seem to threaten the peace she's worked so hard to find.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Suffering can crack the heart open toward transcendence or toward doubt, and when partners move in opposite directions, even healing becomes a source of isolation.
