Episode 2.3 The Sacred Work and Geography of Grief
from Pause, Purpose, Possibility · host Chris Johnson & The Milkweed Group, LLC
Grief is incredibly hard work. And it's sacred work, not just something frivolous to indulge in while neglecting the "real" work that we're "supposed" to doing (like "getting past it" or "staying strong" or "making a living.") And the contours or "geography" of grief can resemble actual geological landscapes, from soaring and plunging, wild, dramatic mountains to endless, flat, monotonous plains -- each of which has something to teach us, questions to pose.
