My Sugar Free Year - Day 40

August 23, 2021
Day 40
 
How does grief play into our relationship with sugar?  It’s been an emotional week for me and my friends who loved our friend Mary who left this physical world one year ago on August 23, 2020.  It’s one of the first big milestones, a reminder of what was. Friends have been gathering or calling, and supporting one another. 
 
What does grief (or other emotions) have to do with sugar?  An urge to have a glass of wine together, to celebrate events the way we used to, to toast her, or just to say what the heck, I want to numb.  Instead, I’ll be meeting friends in the garden with tea and be clear headed and authentic and present for an important moment.
 
Love you Mary.
