I cry so much lately. I don't try to hold it in. From the "Final Thoughts" section of my newsletter: "Don't try to lock your grief out of the house. Eventually, it will beat down your door and overpower you." https://mskellymhayes.substack.com/p/must-read-roundup-1132023
"Or worse, the parts of you that are soft enough to grieve will grow hard. When we forget how to grieve, we forget how to love. Invite your grief in from the cold, make it a cup of hot tea, share space with it, understand it, and understand yourself." https://mskellymhayes.substack.com/p/must-read-roundup-1132023
