"hopefully rainy days will clear up and the sun will shine through." So often I have had to remind myself of this, and pull myself together as you are constantly needing to do right now as well. I have no magic pill other than rest, meditation, patience and care for yourself. Thank you for sharing, and even though I may have just found your writing on this platform, I am wishing the best for you.

Rinku, I understand your sadness. Back in 2000, my only child went off to college, my husband of 20 years decided to divorce me, our beloved golden retriever passed at 14 years and I broke my ankle. Actually, all happened within three months. When I shared with a therapist, she told me that divorces happen most often after the birth of a child, when children leave home.

I love reading your letters, was worried about you, have no idea why you now are left alone, so subscribed to substack. This said, could you contact me via email, christinekingshome@gmail.com, issues I've had with substack I would like to share, though I do not want to add to your stress. Thank you so much, Christine.
