I can’t express it better than Lady Day herself; it’s disappointment, loss, sadness, grief – it won’t kill you and it will pass but probably not today. Allow yourself to feel the loss – acknowledge it, respect it, release it – allow it to pass through you but not consume you.

Be sure to take care of yourself today; dress for comfort (today in Chicago, that includes hat and scarf), sip your coffee or tea slowly (savor, savor, savor), and remind yourself of the joys that fill your life (candy canes in December, daisies in April). 

Be happy. Be safe. Be well.

With Love and Light, Selene.
