Some days are heavier than others/putting it all out there/a meditation:

Something as simply kind as this note from a friend can carry me through the toughest moments.

S--,

You are a sweetheart. I know your hurt is big right now but I know your strength is bigger. You and D--- are good folks and we love you. And of course we love J--- too. I have always respected and admired your mothering of your son. And what a wonderful young man he is becoming, thanks to you and D---. Be proud Mama and don't let other people and their misguided thoughts about how one should display their grief and hurt diminish what you and your family have- what you and your husband have. A lot of people just can't understand because they don't have what you have.

Many blessings to you on this Thanksgiving.

Love,

J----
