This is so honest and quietly brave, Amy. The way you sit with doubt instead of running from it—that’s powerful. Thank you for sharing this moment of real vulnerability and growth so beautifully. <3

Ahhhhhh too kind Miranda. 😚 We are full of complexities. Dark parts took the wheel on this day but they are definitely not the parts that are in control most days. Thank you for the sweet words!

Amy - There are people grieving all around you, even if they're not outwardly expressing their emotions. Maybe your tears will crack open the emotions of others. I wonder if there's an opportunity to start a grief support group in Japan - perhaps with expats and native Japanese.
