Summary: A little bird fell in the waterfall and I tried to rescue it. However, it became clear that he wouldn't make it. So I tried to make his last moments on earth less scary. I sat with him while he passed, then grieved. I invite you to sit with me and bear witness. To feel big and sad and just. be.
Grief is a heavy and complicated thing. I was recording in the garden when I noticed that a little bird fell in the waterfall. I ended up recording the attempted rescue but I couldn't save him. This was the same week that half of my fish died and I was really overwhelmed with it. In this moment, all I could do was cry.
I've sat on this audio a long time because I wasn't sure what to do with it. But I think it's time to share it. Maybe this will help one of you, to sit in grief with someone. To figuratively hold hands and feel. Let this be permission to feel together. Joy shared is doubled, sorrow shared is halved.
