Yes to so much of this: the light, the gardening, the morning pages (which grew to become my blog), the interview with Kubler-Ross (which I also found in the early days of grief). To the letting go of lists and instead stating intentions and reaching for joy. And food, friends and exercise. It’s not always easy to do, but it works.
"...you can devote your whole being to getting something to grow, and yet you are not the one who decides whether it survives."
This is everything, about everything. Thank you Ryan for sharing your wisdom and experience as eloquently as ever. It brings warm understanding, akin to the sun when you first step out of the shade.
“You think: Am I being honest with myself about what can grow here?” - this is THE question for me right now. It’s been easily answered by finding the light, tracking it like a sunflower intent on blooming. Thank you for your support Ryan and always sharing recommendations I love!
