So glad you weren’t absorbed into the system as a priest but we all get to learn from your wisdom as you have time to minister to us through your insights.

A slightly different take on out of blood comes life - I have an odd condition which means at the moment I have to regularly have blood taken from me, after which my symptoms abate for a while. (A bit like being a blood donor but mine is binned.)

I’m still deconstructing and the whole question of suffering has been pondered anew.

Thank you x

Oh that’s interesting! And horrible for you too 😔

(And yes...I’m seeing the gifts in not being priested. Very much so.)

How painfully true. This is so beautiful Jayne. Thankyou for so succinctly describing suffering in a way as a mummy I can relate to. The Joys are immense and the pain cuts so deeply, but with both springs forth new life.
