    Grief is a river. And spiral. And like crashing waves, filled with sucking undertow.
    I so relate.

      When my words resonate with another and then they share their thoughts, my understanding of grief expands and I feel connected, less alone.

      Thank you. ❤

    We feel so all alone in our grief, yet grief is universal, happening to us every single day! Glad my words could help your process. ❤ p.s.. This is @valloves2create ☺

      Hi Val — Thank you — I am so grateful too that we ‘met’ here. I feel like I’ve met a kindred creative soul!

      I realized, over on Dare Boldly, after I’d gone through your comments (thank you!) out of order that you were Val from IG after I’d responded!

      Which of course, took me to your Youtube channel — Love! Love! Love!

      I do hope your flooding didn’t get any worse!

      Thanks again for connecting and commenting and for all the beauty you bring into the world. ❤

        Yes, a kindred creative soul! I have this belief that some of us travel on the same plane in life, and when we find those folks, we connect immediately!! I’m loving your beautiful language both in your poetry and blogging. What you give to the world is immeasurable. 💜💜💜
        My meager you tube channel, lol. I forget I have one. Thanks and let’s stay in touch!

        Love your belief! I’m with you.

        And lol — I’m the same way with my poetry blog! I forget I have one sometimes too! 🙂

        I look forward to staying in touch!
