“Lie down now. The silence is speaking.”

Thank you. Helps me breathe more deeply and trust.

Thank you, Julia, for your generosity.

Day 3 of my 10-minute morning write:

“Grief astronomer, adjust the lens, look close, tell us what you see.” -Andrea Gibson

Sidle up to yourself, grief astronomer. You don’t have to be like the bison - not always anyway! You don’t always have to walk straight into the storm. Sidle up gently to the grief, to the lens of your heart. What do you see, my beloved grief astronomer? I see gray hair, a few strands of brown, mixing, weaving itself into the crown of the crone. Welcome, welcome. Let’s walk each other home.
