Kater Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 This was posted by Dr. Joanne Cacciatore on Facebook. She lost a child years ago. Although a different loss from ours, I find many of her posts are beautiful and deal with grief in general. May you rise strong out of the ashes With the fire of loss in your belly and the tenderness of love guiding your heart. May you carry that love with the ferocity of a warrior, a love of extraordinary force that knows no boundaries, no limits. May you bravely face the questions of others who do not and cannot know, And with a mighty voice speak your truth, And with quivering legs stand tall And despite the fear in your heart, May you turn toward your own sage soul with reluctant trust. May you feel held by the arms of others who have known this loss through history And may the wisdom of the ages carry you in solidarity through all the dark nights you will face. And when you fall, may you fall back into the shadowwith compassion, courage, and the resolve to rise again. And again. And again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
