This is beautiful Sabrina. I am sending so much love and energy for all of these up and down waves and the massive in between space that's in the "before" and "after." Three years ago I lost two people who were basically my second parents in a very tragic way, so a lot of this resonates for me. "Creativity does not need to be grand. The everyday, mundane, small acts – drawing, weaving, cooking, dancing – can become forms of medicine." I love this, and I also think that grief can manifest like that too - it doesn't always show up in the huge debilitating ways like we might expect, often it's as you put it, discombobulating. Thank you for sharing your words and may your own creative acts, whether they be big or small, create a sense of tethering for you. ❤️

Dear Sabrina, this probably is a masterpiece spurted out of your creative meridian that in crisis becomes a vital component which helps us process our grief. Your words are honest and raw drenched in yearnings and insights. I am still struggling with my father’s cancer journey and nothing has spoken to me of the reality of death as deeply as this piece.

Even if I arrived here late, I’m sending you a warm virtual hug. I know, I just do. Thank you for writing this.
