Thank you for sharing these beautiful and important observations, and especially for just taking time to acknowledge grief as both a deeply personal, and yet, shared experience. My wife shared your post with me saying "somebody actually mentioned Blight Christmas online!" I'm glad it led me here. I appreciate the shoutout though feel a little silly having my ridiculous album in the midst of some really peerless musicians, but thank you nonetheless.

DELIGHTED we found each other in this way, Kenneth. My friend Christina O'Hara is such a fan of yours. I'm grateful she introduced me (and a group of our friends) to your work.

I learned so much here, as I always do when you write. But wow, the connection of music and morning and loss… That bears so much more examination. You have a book in you.

Thank you for the videos. I started with Robin Williams, of course, and it seems I will have an extensive playlist to get through slowly when I can. ❤️

I love the word keening. You practice it just by saying it. This is beautiful Cath, thank you for offering this. Really helpful.
