This resonated with me BIG time, as I too am negotiating a head-wrenching discovery about what I thought I knew about my life -- as you say, the details don't matter, but the bewildering struggle to metabolize the unasked-for new reality is the same. Deep thanks for sharing this.
Well said Jan. I’m so glad this piece stuck a chord with you. I feel like my main lesson right now is: release the constant desire for things to be different. Once I started paying attention, I was amazed at how much energy I expend fighting reality. A battle I will never win.
I hope that you are finding your way through your situation with as much peace as possible. ❤️
