Thank you, Andy! You've really touched on something--the moments that sustain, not the moments that make it all crash inward. Yes, when I was reading, trying to find some words in the midst of it, what I found was too much, overwhelming. On the daily, we had to find some humour. When I took my journal of that time and turned it into memoir, I had to get into the funny stuff, the bittersweet, the way this reality worked--the reality that pushes us forward and up. Thank you for reading and taking time to respond! Have a blessed day!
