This January, in the long stretch of Winter, we’ll explore the theme of Grief and how its effects ripple through our interior world and broader community. In American culture we try to categorize or compartmentalize grief through stages and linear progressions. But that’s not how the spirit moves. And grief is one of the most spiritual journeys we will ever embark upon. So let’s eschew the point a to point b myth and live in and companion one another through this exploration of grief.

This month we have been exploring grief, sometimes diving into the emotional depths  and exploring underground caverns.  Have we learned to swim in the process? Are we still holding our breaths and praying that we will not drown? Do we need an entire ocean to hold our tears? Are we swimming to the other side?
