Love your posts - always feel like you are writing to me personally. The universal human condition right?
How do you properly word a condolence on the end of a marriage? I’m sorry for your loss? But happy for your gain? Gain of self - agency - space - freedom to be your true self. (Falling upward!)
From all of my own moving here and there and everywhere, I really relate to the bags of garbage. But your concluding sentences of this little essay made me weep. So true and so wise. Thank you.
I'm sorry to hear that life has not been easy for you. This is a beautiful post. You wrote the Everyday Connections for Years A and C as well? I'm going to go look for Year C so I can get ready. I have Year B and it's beautiful.
I'm sorry about your separation from your husband. Perhaps there's still a chance to work everything out anew? I'm glad I found your blog. As Secular Carmelites (OCDS), my wife and I are also called to seek solitude and space for God. It's great to find a kindred spirit! There's just one statement I can't agree with (unless it's a matter of translation), that life, God, and the world can't always give us what we need. God can always give. More than that, He does give! The problem is whether we know what we need. Sometimes we want things that aren't necessarily good for us, and we don't get them. And that's a good thing!
