There were times on our trip the past week, that I really felt at peace walking along the ocean on the quiet beach. Something I haven’t felt in a long time.

Robbie being sick for a few years, followed by losing him has left me anything but peaceful. Being by the ocean, I felt calm and I slept well. I did thousands of steps each day along the beach, while listening to the waves.

Back home and grief continues to have a grip on me.
