I have been thinking about the a favourite quote of mine,' Birth and Death are the Bookends of our Lives,' as a sacred container for living. I am in this container within my life at the moment, awaiting the birth of a new baby, and preparing for the death of my elderly parents, it occurs to me that so much preparation and celebration goes into a birth and yet for the transition of dying, people are mostly unprepared. People don't like to talk about death and dying in case they 'catch it,' or 'tempt fate.' Curious about your thoughts? Thank you for reading 💜
