Grief finds you Just when you think you're free when you think you've buried it completely or washed it away or cursed it off or sang through it in joyous revelation. Grief finds you when you think it's been too long it's gone for good when you think you've adjusted to the hand you've been dealt. Grief finds you turns your up upside down piercing deeply into your core. Grief finds you shakes you YOU the unshakable and now you can't stop shaking. Grief finds you hugs you holds you cries with you embraces your darkness like an old friend. Grief finds you lifts you through the mud and murky waves above it all into the light breathing now together inseparable. You and Grief can not be made strangers again. And only in this truth the water of your life becomes still clear quiet spacious and only then may love and light return. ~Jessica McKimmie
