Posted Oct 23 2008 1:36pm
Death is an emotion charged event. It is impossible to predict any individual’s reaction. Particularly with a sudden and unexpected death, emotion can boil over and become outwardly directed or not. But it is impossible to predict what the reaction will be with any given individual or with an individual in a given situation. Even the manner an individual has reacted in the past is no predictor of how they will react now or in the future with a death of someone close to them.

We try not to assume or predict how someone is going to react. We try to be “open” and try to anticipate their reaction going in any number of ways, not in any certain way.

Nonetheless, we tried to predict someone’s behavior/reaction today and we were proven wrong. They reacted exactly opposite of what was predicted. Just goes to show you…
