Moving, new schools, change and grief, sentence 1

When a pet or a person we love dies, we feel grief, a mix of sadness, missing them, sometimes anger or guilt; grief is the price of love, and it is normal and real, whether for a person or a pet.

Who acts: we, pet, mix, grief · What happens: love, die, feel, miss, be · To what, where: pet, grief, price
