Profile Information

About Me:
female, demi-elder (my age, 73, and my spirit have very little relationship w/one another until I reckon w/my losses); I continue to work as a clinical social worker. I'm was raging hippie and my heart remains connected to peace and love and connectivity and kindness. I'm wounded by the time we live and remain active in offering alternatives. I'm an elder orphan which weighs on me at times; I'm a yankee transplant in the deep south which also sometimes weighs on me; I look for the sacred in people and nature; I live near the ocean so visit endlessness often. I have a wicked sense of humor most of the time.
About my Loss:
I cannot single out one loss. I've lived with endings, some quite shocking, since I was young and just moved on/through/past/around. Now, as I role into upper middle age and have time and grief has finally become something which is processed differently, I'm squaring off with some of the old ones and the ones I live w/as friends die or move or become less able. Right now I am looking at my next set of choices. Just bought my cremation and am writing my obit and planning my party. Nothing is in the immediate that I know of, but isn't that how it is.
Are You a Service Provider? If Yes, please tell us about your service.
I'm a clinical social worker and an addiction counselor. Built a hospice, worked w/the first identified AIDS pts in an area not known for acceptance at the time, continue to work w/military and non military clients w/PTSD diagnoses. I've been doing this for 30 yrs. Some of my grief is simply existential.

LESBIAN ..GAY 2 SPIRITED loss and grief

Anyone who has lost their gay partner..soon finds that there may be a few things that are different...such as sorting through things and feeling like an intruder because it is also family stuff etcSee More

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
