And I’m trying to lean into my grief. The balmy salve of the grief soothes the lack of preparation. It’s somehow simultaneously generative. It’s all of the things and nothing, all at once!

You’ve captured something for me, here. Given the productive numbness we’ve had drilled into us as standard, this level of devastating input is discombobulating. Something about your description rang true in my body and screamed: “YES. That’s it.” It is warm and heavy and moving. And I’m unprepared.
