You're such a brilliant writer, @agmoore. This is beautiful. I can only imagine the roiling feelings that must have been churning within as you wrote this. Loss is like a desert in some ways. You can navigate it, find oases, stones, trees, life... and yet you must keep stumbling through it in search of meaning. I hope Charles felt the love that you and your family had for him, and that everything he created on his amazing life journey helped him to know in his heart that he led a remarkable life.
Hello dear @jayna,
This is my story, the story of my brother and our shared history. I just told what happened, straight and as it came from my heart.
At some point we have to put things to rest, but how? For me, sharing through writing helps me come to work tough stuff through. What a gift to have people actually listen, understand, and care.
Thank you for reading, and for being a friend. We are human. We need connection. I'm grateful I'm able to make that connection in this little corner of the universe we call Hive.
