Thank you so much for sharing this. The way you describe the danger of grief is precise. Despair is tempting, almost soothing, and I will continue to pray for you and your Mabel so that you continue to look up.

Ari, Ari. I love you so. You are magnificent.

The thing I’ve always known about you is that you are a writer.

The fact that you’ve written through this year and its heartbreaks are a testament to your heart, to your guts. I have to believe that this is what will carry you through towards the light, towards your fellas. I’m much more worried for you and proud of you than I can express. But I know that you ARE light, you’re a person of light. And even in the name you chose for your blog, you knew how you create your reality. I love how you recognize that.

I’m anxious to see you next week. We can have our writer meeting with Auds if you want. Or we can sit.

I heart you. You know this.

What do you say to a mother who is grieving the loss of a child? There are almost no words. I will simply offer this – I had a series of 3 very profound dreams after my mom died. There were many other daydreams and nightmares and an array of in betweens. But these, there I was sure came from up, up there. Each offered something different and each helped stitch closed a part of the wound.

I pray you have those kind of dreams. The healing kind.

Thank you for writing about your Mabel Love. Thank you for loving her enough to share her with all of us. Thank you for letting us share your wonder, your love, your grief… and I’m praying that you know how much Mabel has touched and changed our lives by knowing her and loving her, too. Love you… xo!
