Bumbled (as the bees do when moving through a field of flowers) upon your writing. After sampling your Comfort and Fear, I am nourished by your kind sharing. This particular piece resonates deeply with me. My experiences with hospice care (both parents, close family and dear friends) has helped me get closer to comfort with less fear on a more daily practice. Turning in gratitude, even through intense pain/fear to light, warmth, beauty, natural world rhythms is true comfort. And Joy. Look forward to reading more. Thank you.

This post is timely for me. Always I appreciate the perspectives from those closer to people who are dying. And I love the image at the top. Thanks you Janice for this!

No, actually, I am very uncomfortable in this present moment. I know why. I know and am trying to breathe and just consider it deeply rather than looking away. I'm not in physical pain. It is a deep anxiety and anger that are happening because of things that are very sad and unrelenting among those who are near and dear.

I appreciated this post very much. And the quotes. Thank you, Janice.
