Unsure what to say as a personal description. I’m a speck. We exist on a living, spinning rock. We are at the mercy of physics. Nice to meet you.

The more patient, quiet, and open we are in our sadnesses, the more deeply and unerringly a new revelation can enter us, and the more we can make it our own. Later on when it manifests in our response to another person—we will feel it as belonging to our innermost being.

happy bday writer Joan Didion, b1934, Sacramento

“You have to pick the places you don't walk away from.
“To free us from the expectations of others, to give us back to ourselves--there lies the great, singular power of self-respect.
"Grief turns out to be a place none of us know until we reach it."
