And I, too, want to open my arms wide, to others who need it, which is all of us. It is hard work and it is the most important thing we can do for the planet. I am sharing this. Hope you don't mind.

My gratitude to them runs deep." - "So many people need a kind word, a moment of our listening, and nothing more than this. To know that someone else understands, that someone else has endured a similar grief, helps ease the sorrow." Thank you for this collection of beautiful thoughts. It feels like a promise to yourself. A promise to show up and exist. I am glad you are here, Mark. I am glad you show up and share your words.Eleadari Achesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693398943217704204noreply@blogger.com
