This is beautiful, Laura. Navigating grief and longing is difficult and messy and painful. It’s okay to feel both discontentment and gratitude (which, despite what some may say, can co-exist). Thank you for bravely sharing this ❤️

This is so vulnerable Laura. Thanks for sharing your heart with us. Even though we’ve never met, your positivity oozes from what you write and your smile is so genuine it makes me forget I’ve never met you IRL. But walking through grief myself in a different way, I know that there’s so many layers that live beneath the surface. And discontentment is real and balancing the feelings of our heart with what’s objectively true, is so hard. Lots of love to you!
