Grief and Gratitude, Grok - (A) Rise

[grok]

A pleasant 4th at home with my three. Fireworks at home and the favorite still … lighting the bug spray on fire!

XW did not come by that evening at the curb to say goodnight to children.

A double rainbow on Sunday morning when walking big dog. The beauty of the in between.

I will Step into the changes and throw away the empty heart.

Anthem of the Lonely by Nine Lashes

It's harder to know
Just where to go
If only the stars aligned
The sunsets glowed
I don't need
A calm in a storm
Or something to scream about
With empty lungs

So I'll break it
Knowing what you said
The pain is what you make it
Sadly you are so mistaken
I will take you with a grain
And step into the changes
Throw away the empty heart
