There's a certain pleasure in the refined flow of writing that has been hammered by a thousand thoughts and a hundred revisions, but there's something I like about writing that is poured out and sent out to the world before it can even cool.

There's something authentic about this piece that I think wouldn't have existed if you revised it under the light :)

What a wonderful tribute to your furry family member. I’m sorry for your loss. It’s never easy. But I found comfort and beauty in your words. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing.

I'm sorry to read about your dog. Haley's quote is spot on.

So beautifully said. "If you truly love something, you can never lose it. It contains a deep, mysterious, continuity." Ugh, so good.

Wishing you the best in this difficult time.
