These moments you describe, Heather, are so visceral. I remember my own challenges during the COVID pandemic, how I lost someone so close to me, how friends scooped me up to save me from loneliness. Your story brings tears to my eyes.
Thank you for your comment, Dan. Writing about this experience has been an interesting experience. Some may fear that looking at the wounds of our past will only exacerbate our suffering. However, if done mindfully, it can be insightful. As the poet Rumi says, “The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”
