Guilt can weigh heavily on the soul from "summary" of Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner
The burden of guilt is a heavy weight to bear, a weight that can suffocate the soul and cloud the mind. It lingers like a shadow, a constant presence that refuses to be ignored. As Michelle Zauner navigates the complexities of grief and loss in 'Crying in H Mart', she grapples with the guilt that accompanies the death of her mother. The guilt she feels is not easily shaken off; it clings to her like a second skin, a reminder of all the things left unsaid and undone. It haunts her in quiet moments, whispering accusations and fueling self-doubt. Zauner's guilt is compounded by the cultural expectations placed upon her as a Korean American daughter. She feels the weight of her mother's sacrifices and the pressure to live up to her legacy, to honor her memory in every aspect of her life. This sense of duty only adds to the heaviness of her guilt, creating a tangled web of emotions that threaten to overwhelm her. Zauner's journey through grief is marked by moments of reckoning with her guilt, moments where she must confront the truth of her feelings and accept the weight of her emotions. It is a painful process, one that requires courage and vulnerability, but it is ultimately necessary for her healing.- Zauner reminds us that guilt is a natural part of the grieving process, a sign of our love and our humanity. It is a burden we must learn to carry with grace and forgiveness, a burden that can ultimately lead us to a place of peace and acceptance.
