What is grief?

So, I have a fairly clear concept of life and life after death, considering I/we cannot possibly know. (I've had enough contact w spirits and loved ones to feel confident).

We are one, but also separate souls - that incarnate here for various reasons. We can know each other since before, meet a loved soul in passing, or get to work together for a life time.

Since we are on some level always one, and always together even though we are seemingly separated here - I've had easier grieving process than some. But I still grieve. It's physical.

I got to think of this today as I passed a man I know, who owns a beautiful golden retriever. We've greeted only a handful of times with my dog, but this lady and I we loved each other. She would sit down when she saw me at a distance, the owner would just have to wait til I hit there, and then the lady dog would sing to me <3

She would just talk and sing of how happy she was to be together again, I'd talk back, and feel so connected and so much love. From day one I knew I knew her from before, a dear trusted friend...!

She was old, and I had thought that it had been a while since I saw her. Today I saw the owner - without his dog, which never happens - and I knew for sure then that she was gone.

And here is the thing:

The realization hit me like a pang to my heart, airvsucked out of me, heart breaking, pain. Just pain.

What do you guys think that is?

When we incarnate do we get some kind of physical attachment - like the invisible cord in The Golden Compass - to other incarnated souls that we've connected with?

Why does the leaving the 'earth realm' of a soul that I love - but that I really had very limited contact with, in this realm, compared to on soul level or in other incarnation incarnations... Why would it pain me - as a first response before thought or anything.

She's gone. Argh, pain!

Is it because she is now lost to me til she incarnates a again - and I find her?

But it felt like it was a real, dimensional thing - that the jump between modes of existance, like my awareness of her jump was the key to cutting something over...


OK, what theories are there out there?

Have you exprerienced grief? How did you handle it?
