GRIEF

There are some griefs so loud
They could bring down the sky,
And there are griefs so still
None knows how deep they lie.

--May Sarton, "Of Grief"

These words touched me to my core. They are so true for me, and I'm feeling this grief. Sometimes my grief overwhelms me until I think I cannot move. It is exhausting.

I know that you too are feeling your grief. My heart aches for our losses, both yours and mine.

I wish I had happy words for you, words that would lift this grief from your shoulders. Of course I know that I cannot and should not. Your pain is yours alone. The best I can do is to tell you that I am with you in spirit and am hoping that in the emptiness of your grief you continue to hear the echo of your own voice in the words you have taught me and in these words you have shared with us.
