Grief That’s Too Much To Bear by Angie Arndt
My favorite aunt was sick, but I couldn’t come to the hospital because she didn’t want me to see her this way. I laughed in spite of my anxiousness. Just like Aunt Polly. I called daily to see how she was. My uncle kept repeating the same song: “About the same.” I asked for prayer … Read More

“I was Blind” by Klicia Thompson
