I am one who suffers.I am one who is learning that sometimes I cannot stop the pain. I am one who is learning ways to stop the suffering. (One person said this card is disturbing. It is one that I have come back to time and time again. To find ways to name what it is that holds me in a bind, that which I hold on to so tightly.)
Youngest of 5 daughters of Quaker Mom and Danish Dad, MomWifeGrandma. Chaplain. My last position was offering spiritual support as a group facilitator in six different psychiatric populations. I loved my work, and miss it. But now I am spending much of my time playing with fibers, beads, bits and pieces of this and that. And looking at the world in a new way - infinity of art and beauty, color, texture and shape.
