hey whereya been?
Hello friend,
Thank you for extending some thoughts towards me. Life. Life is where I have been. In some instances it has gotten the better of me.
An update post may be coming soon, it might not be - I am now in the busy season with the renaissance festival season so....keep thinking about me. I appreciate it.

I want to say this bc it does not get said enough: most grief you experience in your life will have NOTHING to do with death.
This is not talked about enough and as a result ppl struggle to process grief bc the world is telling them that grief is something else.
Grief is about loss, and IF you’d like to define it as a loss of life it is not restricted to loss of life via death. Even then I’d implore you to not view grief as about death or life but again, just loss.
Grief is also about having a shitty childhood that nothing can fix even if you have healed from it as an adult; your childhood was shitty and there’s nothing retroactively you can do about it. You grieve the loss of thriving your past self was denied.
Grief is about friendships that ended abruptly, confusingly and again, there’s nothing you can do to change that. You just have to sit with it. This is the only way grief can ultimately be processed and all it wants by the way: to be accepted and sat with. That’s it.
Grief is about opportunities that have passed, experiences you can’t have because of the way situations have ended up, and having to accept that while you do have your whole future ahead of you, there were some things you wanted to be a certain way then and they weren’t, aren’t and will never be.
Grief is being estranged from your family and missing family closeness even though you do not want to be closer to your parents, because you’re grieving the fact that there is a healthy part of human life you will not experience through them.
Grief can be the job you lost, the plans that fell through, the events that spiraled out of your control
If grief is strictly about life and death, understand that it includes grieving the life you never had and the death of who you used to be, too.
But moreover, grief is about loss.

Totally . After my girlfriend died a lot of my friends said ‘I don’t know what you’re going through because I’ve never experienced this. As one friend said: ‘You have gone to a country I have never been to’
But later on, they would talk about their divorce, or their loss of jobs or trauma or other kinds of loss, and what it did to them. The grief, saying goodbye to a life you would’ve loved to have, deep sadness, anger. And I recognized so much.
And yes, parts of dealing with death are quite unique to it, in my experience. And they can maybe only be shared with people who have gone through something similar. But a lot of it is not so alien. 
Hi Hi There.
Near the coast, near the end of a town, there is a small market where you can stock up on groceries and some necessary products to continue your trip.
It's a good time to refuel and get some rest before heading off on your adventure, also in the upper part there are some restaurants.
