So beautifully said. I’m sorry that you lost your twin, and what a gift to find solace in someone else’s words. I read when breath becomes air a few years ago and agree with everything you said. Such a beautiful book. I don’t know if it was in the book or a podcast about it, but I’ll never forget the conversation with his wife around having a child. She asked “but what if we get pregnant and then you know you only have a short time with our baby” and he said something like “wouldn’t it be wonderful if we did” 💔
Thanks Lindsay 💙 “Finding solace is someone else’s words”, such a good phrase, has always been so healing for me. And I remember exactly that part of the book! It’s so true and so moving 🥹
Beautifully written Cassandra. There is so much more I would love to know about you and how you feel. The losses we have all experienced have taken a toll and left a painful void. Not speaking openly about our feelings with those we love and who can wound us is very difficult. I am inspired by you to make an effort to put those feelings into words. Fear has held me back for far too long. xo
Thanks for your kind words, Teresa. It’s not easy to express complex feelings! But I think it’s necessary for healing, which grows every time we share our little seeds of truth with someone. 💜
