Kone! I'm touched you found your way here and enjoyed my writing. The 4 things in particular are indeed healing, yet hard for many of us to say.

This was such a beautiful story and Compline such a beautiful resource for us when we don't know what or how to pray in the face of tremendous loss. Excited to read more of your work!

I didn’t cry until I started reading the compline. Death has been around me for almost ten years; my husband’s suicide, my Dad’s final moments in my arms on a hard floor where he collapsed, another husband wasting away with cancer, and my Mom’s almost calm passing from pneumonia. I hope these sweet, little girls receive loving support from their father and grandparents. I am sending them my heartfelt love.

Dawn, thanks for reading and sharing part of your story. I hope the compline brings you some peace in the face of a decade of loss, especially on this holiday.
