I really appreciate it. I wish you and your wife the best (and if you want to read more about my diagnosis and the issues I face, I have an infertility blog that I post even less frequently on... www.cantcontroleverythingafterall.wordpress.com)<br /><br />As for training-- lunch was REALLY good at getting me out of my head, and I found the concept of "orchestrated violence" to be really apt.<br /><br />Thank you ;)Georgettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08705282002904234217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30740798.post-51836601154937056962013-09-30T14:36:56.511-05:002013-09-30T14:36:56.511-05:00Although we've never met, I find myself at you...Although we've never met, I find myself at your blog often enough to feel motivated by your courage, to celebrate your victories and mourn your losses. <br /><br />You have my deepest condolences on the loss of your child; I can only imagine how difficult it must be - as a 30-something who is only beginning to have trouble to have a larger family than my wife and myself, I wanted to thank you for your honesty in this struggle. Even though you may be by yourself, you are not alone.<br /><br />I've been told that one of the best ways to battle depression is to be active; in this case, I think perhaps you just need time to breathe on the mat, to feel it under your feet, to swaddle yourself in the warm arms of a gi. At least for me, those times of orchestrated violence - both against my person and against my opponent - bring a clarity to my life that nothing else can.<br /><br />Perhaps it seems trite, but I am praying for you, for your family and for those in your community that surround you, that you might be uplifted and given peace.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
