grief, when not resisted, unfolds into its own flavour of bliss

I like how it's possible to deeply enjoy the bittersweet nature of transient wonderful experiences

rather than fighting the grief, I'm finding ways to actually enjoy it in real time alongside the pure enjoyment of the connection and early morning quiet

I keep catching myself saying stuff like "I'm looking forward to when he <X>", but always immediately find myself correcting and pre-emptively grieving all the good things about this time right now

he'll never be a tiny nugget like this again, and I'm enjoying him as he is

yeah it’s all public. granted maybe there’s some copyright at play but it’s not like we’re being directly plagiarised

can’t see anything stopping this tbh

standing all the time isn’t great either, but changing positions often is good

so get one that goes up and down easily

sorry this should say ghrita is ghee

I’m clearly feeling the effects of it

and then the herbs start releasing the various wastes held in the tissues, so you start feeling a crappy because of that

but... there will be a purge at some point!
