I cannot remember who the quote is from but I've heard it expressed this way as well.
Grief is love that has nowhere to go.
Edit: Found it. Here's the full quote.
Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.― Jamie Anderson
"Grief is visceral, not reasonable: the howling at the center of grief is raw and real. It is love in its most wild form."...Megan Devine
Loss is hard but that is why God gives us memories...and a life well lived is always a joy...
At least your icon is immortal...
