Thank you

Thanks for your loving words of support.

Thanks for not walking away at my self pity and anger in the post before last.

Thanks for holding me through this time.

And also thanks to real life friends who sent cards, messages and left wine.

While you do this alone, it does not mean that there aren't people beside you, cheering you on.

Grateful to you.

It's self pity and anger to be sad and angry that your beloved Maya died?

No, that's love.

Mrs Spit - you are much kinder on me than you are on yourself.

Wine? There's wine involved?

You guys are never, ever far from my mind. Ever. (And if I were closer, I'd most certainly have brought wine- and chocolate!)

I feel a special love for maya even though I never knew her. A kinship perhaps.

whatever it is, no need to berate yourself - its not self pity. its grief and missing maya. there is a huge difference.

I agree with Mrs. Spit . . .and with your comment as well.

Why are we not all more gentle with ourselves?

Peace to you.

In our grief we find strength and ... fortunately in this age of the Internet ... friendship and support from all corners.

oxoxoxo, PJ

I missed the self pity part - none there, just grief is what I found. And totally understandable. The anger part too, all grief. The grief seems so overwhelming sometimes. It's bloggy friends like you that help get me through. Hugs.

B, thank you for your kind and thoughtful comments on my recent post. I am very grateful for your suggestions and intend to put them to use when I come back to these issues in October. I am taking a break for my 2 month final teaching prac, then 2 weeks of holiday in September (Darwin and Bali). I'll be ready for the next round of navel gazing by then!
