a wonderful essay, Ashe. I've dealt with something similar with someone I loved and I couldn't heal her either. (I was too young to understand all that. It took a long time to get it.)
I can only imagine how it must have affected you as a young one. Children (even the ones that don’t think they’re children anymore, I.e, teens lol) tend to blame themselves. Hugs 🫂 to you always.
I felt this so deeply. As someone who has struggled with this self-same monster, I not only feel the struggle of your loved one, but am blown away by your compassion, support, and love. If only every one has such a cheerleader in their corner, the landscape of things would be so different. You write so beautifully and tenderly, it made me feel like you were talking to me.🥰 Ironically, I recently wrote about a monster, too - a different one though - but my struggle with my monster was born as a consequence of this demon you speak of. Grateful to have come across your essay today🙏🏼❤️
WOW. How beautiful a testament to love. Steadfast, wise, ever-present, and patient. Lovely.
Thank you Shalagh💛
This was so beautiful. I can relate to this. Thanks for sharing.
