I…. Ugh another comment that has brought me to tears I am trying to hold back! and to be complimented in such a way! Aiša, independent thought is hard to come by and so is its action! It’s been quite an uphill, windy journey through grief. The real healing started this year and I’m still so shocked at its impact, beyond just this piece. Thank you for your insight and I hope you continue to think through the complex questions life has to offer!

This comment especially, Gie, has brought tears to my eyes! I never thought I’d be more honest with strangers than my own family… but i take it day by day. You should too, and it’s okay to be triggered. I am often… but as long as you don’t lose yourself in it, you’ll be okay. Thank you so much for your condolences!!! And it is indeed a blessing to touch your soul the way you did with your comment. Thanks again!!!

Thanks so much!!! I didn’t think I’d have this much of an impact on anyone, but I’m so glad you enjoyed reading it.
