Sending you love and virtual hugs, I know the ache you describe, it hit me to my core... but also, because of it, I reached a new place of knowing myself... for that I am grateful.
exactly valerie. that is how i'm feeling. that i am reacing a new place of knowing myself. that i've been expanded. it's such a powerful thing - to be present for this human experience. to show up for it, to be changed by it. incredible. really incredible. thankk you love.
we are definitely in this together, dear heart. you are a wonderfully raw, open-hearted deeply feeling, emotionally tender, loving soul, and that is such a gift. and, as I know you know... feeling the sad bits makes feeling the good bits even more delicious. thank you as always, for sharing your truths, baring your soul... it feeds us all
thank you dear sacha! what beautiful words. i miss seeing your shining smile and spending time with your heart that feels like flowers blooming. thank you for reading. thank you for being here. xoxo
i've been meaning to read that book, wendell. it sounds like the perfect time. i will seek it out at the library. this grief has been a powerful teacher. staying present, breathing through it, has changed me. is changing me. i so appreciate your understanding and your kindness.
from the messy middle, from the breath and the body... i love that you are staying there, that you are calling us to stay there - in our own bodies - with you, alongside you, apart but together, in our own worlds, but feeling the same or similar grief, hearing the same or similar disheartening, gut-wrenching news - the kind that brings you to your knees, that doubles you over, that connects you to others in ways that you'd never known before... the holding all of it with such tenderness and grace, with genuine heartfelt compassion for yourself, the giving yourself permission to feel and not hide and not run and not distract and not distance... this is aliveness, too.

Oh I feel your grief. So hard to hold .
I just read All Fours by Miranda July. It’s a romping (!) treatise on grief and redemption.
