Fri, 27 Jun 2025 09:07:16 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.34 By: Veronica https://fatfreevegan.com/slowmiracle/2021/09/06/pieces-of-process/#comment-65182 Mon, 13 Sep 2021 18:15:04 +0000 https://fatfreevegan.com/slowmiracle/?p=8671#comment-65182 I’m so very sorry about being unable to connect with the baby. I truly hope they’re doing well with their birth mom, though I’m saddened it’s come at the cost of your and your family’s heartbreak. I like how you’ve expanded “TK” into everyday life, and injected a bit of hope into the future. Thinking of you and sending love. xoxo

It’s truly a gift how our writing and memories help shore each of us up. I’m honored my words help you as well, Dear Friend. Here’s to the good things “TK.” Love you xo

And I personally loved your recollection that, as a young person, you knew you didn’t want to end your life because you wanted to see how it would turn out. Depression turns off that curiosity for me, but by now I’ve accumulated a bank of memories that serves as evidence that things change and life can keep surprising me. I’ll reread those words of yours when I need them one day.

I’m so, so very glad that “TK” struck a hopeful note in your heart. I know how hard it is to find hope in those moments of profound grief. I hope that small pieces of hope and peace will continue to find you—that they’re all TK.

Sending you much love.
