My Beloved Child

Join Me On This Journey

Her death is

no

guarantee,

no insurance,

that I

will

not

lose again.

There is no

way

to

protect myself

from

further loss.

That is deeply

frightening.

What do

I

do with

that?

Well,

I guess

I

notice

how precious

today is

&

how deeply

I love you.

The choice we all have to make over and over is to take the risk of loving again.  The choice to love again, to invest enthusiastically in life, makes all the difference.  Knowing that we could lose someone again and still choosing to participate, rebuild our souls and lives and not bench ourselves. This is the quiet courage of grieving people.  Join me on this journey.
