Moving, new schools, change and grief, sentence 3
Grief comes and goes in waves: you may cry one moment and laugh the next, and laughing does not mean you have forgotten; talking, crying and keeping memories all help.
Who acts: Grief, you · What happens: come, go, cry, laugh, not mean, forget · To what, where: waves, next, memories · Speech: someone speaks here
