morgan, sara and i trekked up to stephen s wise for sara's final meeting with rabbi stern. i think her speech is pretty much ready, except for a few minor edits...although i only know this from listening to the two of them discuss. stern was full of praise of sara today. she really amazes me...so strong...so smart and so present in all of her emotions.
while up at temple we also got to see the memorial plaque we purchased in Glenn's name that will be hung in the main sanctuary on the memorial wall (in time for sara's bat mitzvah). seeing his name stung. it hit hard in my heart. as i held the plaque in my hands, i stared down at GLENN HOWARD COOPER January 3, 2013, the tears ran down my face and the three of us held onto each other, and cried.
lately i walk around in a state of duality - okay vs soooo not okay. it is very confusing to me. i've been desperately trying to heal these polar opposites. i am certain that when i give the most sad, most scared, most angry and most insecure Sheryl the space to feel all of that, then i know i am taking care of her. the reality is the reality. i sleep alone and wake alone, and that is just that. i don't need someone else's solution or way, i have to navigate this one on my own.
