I am about to lose another dear friend to a scathing disease with a rapid physical and mental decline. The grief began when she became ill and will continue long after she leaves us physically. This post was received at just the right time for me, and I will share with her husband when it is the right time for him. 🙏🏼

As for grief - Its more about rejection for me.

As for the St. X. Labyrinth - I know what that plant is and I know what it will be like in the summer and the autumn. I won't tell you. I'll let you experience it.

I look forward to the surprise of what it will be!

And my apologies for mis-naming your feeling. Enneagram 5….

No misnaming. I was able to identify why I puzzle over questions like the one you posed.

I guess rejection is a kind of grief every time you experience it, however, its become normalized for me.
