Thank you for feeling deeply and taking your readers on your range of emotions - both magic with Joni and bitterness and anger with cancer. Your wisdom and insights are a gift.🙏🏼

Maija, I appreciate your sharing your anger and the image of spitting out the bitterness. Often, when I think of you, I hold the images of the concerts you’ve attended this year and the joy music brings to you. Thanks for sharing about Joni’s laughter. I hold you in my heart constantly.
