One need not personally know another to share pain. I let these words sit, then sit some more. “Indescribable pain. Lost without her. We lost so much.” 💜💜💜

To Darin and Lisa , a snippet of your beautiful #stumblebaby right here: April 16, 2011. Simply, an amazing transformation from a sweet baby to a beautiful person. Love, C.

And now a few thoughts on #ambiguous #grief wellfindeachothersoon.wordpress.com/2023/08/17/in-…

A beautiful SOUL.

The greatest and most profound love right here. “No matter what the distance is, I’ll be with you.” This kind of love is impactful.

In awe of a niece I didn’t know as a little girl. She was adopted into a beautifully loved family. Years later, we rediscovered each other. One never knows how love surprises when least expected. 💜

Sunset or sunrise - which do you prefer more? What keeps me breathing for $200, Alex.

A sweet moment in Leo’s world.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! Actually I hadn’t a clue until X reminded me. Back then, it was simply Twitter. 15 years of anything related to social media is prehistoric. I’m still here, my prehistoric self and all. #MyXAnniversary

Who knew how this smallish person could be such a rock in my sixty-something world? #grandson #blendedfamily

We may never meet, though sometimes it’s not necessary between like-kind souls. 💜

I am missing my life coach. We return to each other next week. I’m ready to learn more about myself and life when we reconnect. #grandsonandnana

Pride month is every month. 🌈

As one who has been told many times to not contact my children, by my children, suffice it to say, I continue to honor those wishes. They are convicted with their decision, as am I about reaching out. Accountability is a great resource for healing.

In my deepest sadness, therein lies this beautiful soul, my grandson. Family isn’t always connected by DNA. I will always love my daughters, accepted my horrific mistakes years ago. Now in my mid-sixties, I choose LIFE. Love always grows.

So much social media platforms, so little social media time. In any case, I’m coming to few conclusions about my life, which is right on time, as I’m 65 in October and life has a way of kicking one in the gut. So I’m wide awake these days.

I rarely post here. At almost 65, ‘dinosaur’ comes to mind. Except lately, I’ve met younger friends, you know, the age they could be my children. I’m in awe of my younger counterparts. They inspire and wake this girl up. Be open to others. 💜

A beautiful day in Bludenz #Austria. One of the most places I’ve visited. The best? The people are lovely and the food is delicious!

I’ve watched this approximately one-thousand times and going back for more. 💜💜
