I shut my eyes and cover them with my hands to block out the horror of this.
I open my heart and throw my arms wide to hold you to me.
((No words left today))

Oh Barbara, thank you thank you. This month this writing this remembering is brutal in ways and super highways have reopened in my brain.

This gave me chills. Yes, remembering can be brutal, but your words are astounding. You are such a talent. You are loved by many.
Thank you so much Carolyn. What an incredibly moving response.
