On Kobe Bryant. And grief.
It’s OK to be affected by the passing of someone you didn’t know personally; part of you can pass, too. To be affected by loss is compassion in its most pure form, “to suffer with”, quite literally.
And in that way we we carry all we have lost.
Want to know what Kobe Bryant meant to LA? My neighbor who loves playing basketball has been out here like this for a good 20 minutes with his Lakers basketball. #RIPMAMBA
