I started writing this update like three times and kept deleting it because it sounded stiff and formal and that's not me and that's not how I want to present myself here. So then I wrote out the notes of what I want to say and I was going to use it as an outline for an actual post, but you know what? Published is better than perfect, and honestly this is a more accurate depiction of my thought process and what I want to share. So here are my notes on what's going on over here at Perks of Being a Widow and what I'd like to share with you all. Enjoy.
what do i want to say to the people who want to listen to me
I've started recording
I've noticed
The journey continues whether or not we want it to/we get to decide to be a participant in it
Healing is messy but talking about it helps provide perspective
Some aspects of the grief experience are meant to stay private
I say um and like a lot
There's wisdom in the phrase "Just do it"
I'm learning
How to edit audio
Time management and scheduling
Every grief journey is different
We need grief literacy in our society
There is time and space for everyone's story
My goals moving forward
Start publishing the damn thing
Actually utilize this website and blog feature
Maybe post more on social media or some shit I don't know
Episode One, coming soon!
