How did the rose Ever open its heart And give to this world All its beauty?
It felt the Encouragement of light Against its being.
Otherwise, We all remain Too frightened.
-Hafiz
About The Encouragement of Light
I started this blog in March 2008, days after an auto accident that killed my 9 month old son (Sage) and my dad (Dennie) and left me with serious injuries, including a broken pelvis. I write to share my exploration of life after losing my child and to process this experience. My husband, Michael, and I find ourselves in the foreign land of grief, sometimes utterly lost, and sometimes awed by unexpected beauty.
