“sometimes, i consider myself
to be the wind
sometimes, i consider myself
to be the anchor
sometimes, i know that without a doubt,
i am the ocean
but only the open sky can see
what i really am”
“you need both the light and the dark. one does not exist without the other. to sweep your darkness under the rug is to do yourself a great disservice. there is so much there to learn. how can you feel the freedom of the sun when you have not sat for a while under the shade of the trees? surely you can learn to appreciate both. the key here is learning to accept and exist in each state. to appreciate and welcome each part of you without discrediting it. we are creatures of light and dark. that is the space where strength and softness make a blood pact.”

A deeply moving book of prose and poetry that captures the bittersweet and dark nature of grief and letting go. This is a timeless companion for people of all ages, stages and phases of life. If you are going through something, letting go of something or someone then this book will see you and take the measure of your sadness, anger and fear – letting light into your life for clarity and connection with self and the world.
