I guess grief is a way of keeping the dead person alive in our hearts, and we do that until we are prepared to let the memory go, or we ourselves die.
But until then it's good to remember.
In this disposable and amnesic world where people are often not valued, we have our memories left to keep faith with; and we don't want to easily forget our friends.
Not that you do. You get more and more used to dead friends as you get older, until finally perhaps you live with them, or so I hope.
