What is your relationship to GRIEF?
Mary Oliver’s poem “Lead” ends with this line “I tell you this to break your heart, by which I mean only that it break open and never close again to the rest of the world.” What do you think about feeling loss and keeping your heart open? Do you have any rituals or practices for recognizing feelings of loss and heartache? Regret? Anger? What tools do you enlist to help you mourn? To hold deep sorrow and pain? To me this gator in the swampy depths represents being in the murky and terrifying darkness with all of the beauty and pain that exists when loving deeply.
