Waking to silence

My journey with dying, death, and grief.

I’ve been on a personal journey since my partner’s death in 2016, going down into dark caves and up over mountains of information about dying, death, and grief. Reading, reflecting, and writing about my thoughts and feelings are central to my new life and have taught me some of life’s hardest lessons.  Waking to silence is my life now.  I believe we should speak openly about these experiences to lower the veil of silence created by our culture of death and grief avoidance.
