This is an ongoing experiment. I’m quite convinced that crying is a critical part of healing. I’m still exploring the nuances of it, and those seem to matter. At this point, a year and a half after writing this, I’m happily crying regularly, but also refocusing from grief to other, less-sad things.
I’ll be writing more on this subject for sure. Stay tuned.
