In 2022, My best friend Barbara came to visit me with an assignment from her life coach tucked under her arm. We sat outside on my veranda, and Barbara shared with me what her coach had told her. She asked her to dig deep and discover what certain words meant to her during her current cancer journey. I was intrigued since I had been by her side during all of her challenges. I also experienced the pain and grief of watching my big sister Lynn struggle and deteriorate with this disease. I knew in this moment that I would do anything within my power to support Barbara on her path of understanding and healing. We decided to share a word with one another each day expressing ourselves in a raw and unfiltered way. I did not expect that this project that was meant to help Barbara would also have such an enormous impact on me. What started out as a writing challenge ended up a tool to work through my own painful situations with misunderstandings and my unsettled grief. I thank you for joining us on a Deep Dive 365 Word sojourn of your own. I truly hope that this writing project will bring you even a sliver of the healing that the two of us have experienced along the way.
