"Rainy days and Mondays"... Well, it is Monday, and a hot, sunny summer's day, no rain in sight. Small waves wash over me today, and my tears replace raindrops.
Yesterday was a good day. With siblings and family I felt like me once more, almost. I was able to laugh with them and at myself.
The best connection was my encounter with a tiny, red-legged grasshopper. We extended our greeting by walking toward each other. We stopped and peered into eyes with glints of recognition. Then we each went our own way. The peace I felt was instantaneous, and stays with me still.
Soon, I will attempt to put some pictures of my mother in their proper places. For several weeks her photos lay in full view, where I must pass her each time I enter and leave. Now that I've had my first dream of her since she died, I am ready to declutter my living space. More about that dream in another post.

Ride the waves of grief with me
I invite you to ride along on my journey. Beginning with my first post, August 15, 2009, I hope you will ride the waves with me, as I grieve and heal. Perhaps you will relate and gain from my experience.
Ride the waves of grief with me
About Me
- Judy Price
- As you have already gathered, my name is Judy, and even though my last name is Price, as a divorced woman, I am 'Price-less'. . . There have been several losses in my life of various kinds, some through death, and others not. The grief for all is similar. Humour is the remedy and balance. My poetry is based on personal emotion and experience. I have found the lyrical rhythm of concise word use to be a brief and cathartic release. Due to 'intellectual property rights' concerns, I am not publishing my poetry here. This blog is a forum for me to express myself and to share my writing on-line. My hope is that it will entertain and resonate with others who can relate to my own personal journey.
