A skyfull of missies.
On the news this 24 year old mother who just lost her 2 and 4 year old children says, through a translator, her life has just become difficult.
Difficult. That word stuck with me throughout the day. Difficult. Maybe because it was translated poorly, or maybe it was translated correctly.
How casually I use the word difficult to describe everyday things: Opening a stuck jar, parallel parking in rush hour, finding the perfect word, these can be difficult; not losing your children. So the word stuck with me, and with it, the grief of this beautiful woman.
A skyfull of missies.
