Out of Darkness: When life intersects

When standing on the corner of loss and grief, which road leads to the light?
Life is a series of losses and recoveries, but sometimes the recovery never comes. It just begins a new road leading to a new loss.
Do we isolate to insulate? Devoid to avoid? Is there comfort in reliving the past? Do we dare to take the leap of faith that brings new beginnings?
No.
Just like the intersection of a 16th century coquina wall and its 20th century patch, it remains wounded. No patch can stop the bleeding heart and no happiness can dry yesterday's tears.
