I'm so sorry that you're hurting these days, Sheri. I can certainly relate to emotional pain. I love how you turned pain into a 'being'. It's always amazing to me how this kind of perspective can make such a difference in dealing with some sort of issue where we're stuck.
You're so right about how important it is to feel the pain if you hope to let it go so you can move on. Stuffing it inside is deadly, if not physically (which it can be) certainly emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
Thank you for sharing this brilliant piece. I hope you move forward from this painful place really quickly so you can find your way to happiness again. 💜
