For that place that is both familar and foreign. It is the nature of grief--to release two opposite emotions into the hull of one soul. It is what makes the pain sear and eventually lets the heart soar. The familiar and the foreign are twins. Both confirm your life, even when it feels like the racking sobs won't allow you the air you need to breath. The lonely-ness you feel is the foreign, rebelling the pain even as it heals it. You are lucky and loved. Pain and loss are the price we pay for being loved and lucky....that's why it's familiar. We all know that in our hearts. One of my life sayings is: You don't know how lucky you are until your not lucky anymore. That is true. But not the whole truth. The rest of it is: after the twins --familar and foreign-- are done with you, you return to that space. That lucky and loved space. Embrace the twins and go on living and loving the way you do so very well, M. My heart is with yours. Love, Vera M-
